Active Learning Strategies - Upcoming Library Juice Academy Course

  • 1.  Active Learning Strategies - Upcoming Library Juice Academy Course

    Posted Jul 25, 2022 10:25 AM
    Hello,

    Here is an upcoming Library Juice Academy course that may be of interest. There is still time to register! Registration closes August 7th at midnight. 

    Active Learning Strategies


    Dates: August 1 - August 28
    Instructor: Mimi O'Malley
    Credits: 1.5 CEUs or 15 PDHs
    Price: $200.00

    Traditional lecture tends to overload students with information which becomes difficult to comprehend or simply repeats textbook readings. Active learning allows students to digest information sequenced through activities. This course will explore active learning strategies for both in-class and online courses and instruction. Cooperative, collaborative, problem-based, and project-based learning will be explored. Reviewing assessments of active learning strategies will also be discussed. The course will conclude with potential barriers along with strategies to keep students motivated during active learning. Participants will complete the course with one active learning activity to incorporate into a class or instruction.


    This course can be taken as one of the courses in our eight-course Certificate in Library Instruction, but can be taken as a stand-alone course as well.
