Engaging Student Learners through Small Teaching
Viewers will think about ways they can make small adjustments to their teaching to enhance student learning and engagement with course materials.

Inside the Webinar
Drawing on practices from James Lang's book Small Teaching: Everyday Lessons from the Science of Learning, this workshop will prompt viewers to think about the ways they can make small adjustments to their teaching to enhance student learning and engagement with course materials. Rather than overhauling an entire syllabus, small teaching invites instructors to, for example, reconsider how they approach the first 5 minutes or the last 5 minutes of class time, how pre-tests might help us address gaps in student knowledge, or how to use class time for direct practice, among other small teaching strategies. Leave with ideas that you can implement in your classroom straightaway!
