Active Learning in STEM Courses

When implemented effectively, active learning techniques have been shown to improve learning outcomes. This four week mini-course is designed to help participants explore active learning and consider how to effectively implement these techniques in various classroom settings. This course is intended for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows interested in utilizing these techniques in recitations or their own courses, now or in the future.

CTL offers Active Learning in STEM Courses every summer. There will be a session running this summer on Wednesdays 4-6pm starting July 11, 2018.

For more information contact Julie McGurk (mcgurk@upenn.edu).

Here is the syllabus for the course:
