Active learning relies on instructional methods which engage and challenge students in the learning process through activities; often collaborative and reflective, both inside and outside of the classroom. Active learners are continuously using feedback to assess the extent of their learning and identifying what they need to learn next, with or without a tutor present.

This workshop will provide an opportunity to consider how active learning can support engaging teaching and learning practices and programme outcomes. There will be an opportunity to share existing good practice across subject areas and to begin to consider how to apply active learning as a hallmark within your disciplinary context.

This workshop is hosted by the Centre for Innovation in Education and open to University of Liverpool staff only.

Please use your University of Liverpool email address when booking ( e.g. @liverpool.ac.uk). CIE reserve the option of offering one to one meetings to attendees on workshops with fewer than five bookings.
