Teaching Showcase

The purpose of this event is to give faculty an opportunity to showcase how they have successfully incorporated active learning into their pedagogy. Faculty presenters will choose to highlight a lesson plan for one of the following course modalities with a poster presentation:

• Face-to-Face
• Hybrid
• Online

By listening to the techniques used by colleagues, we can sharpen and add to our own teaching tool set. This will ultimately benefit our students as we provide them with innovative class experiences.

Teaching Showcase Details

• Wednesday, February 19, 2025

Presentation Style

The showcase will be conducted as an open-house style format so that attendees can freely peruse the various poster presentations and engage in dialogue with the faculty presenters.
