Large Class Strategies for Engagement and Learning
Large classes offer special challenges for engaging students, promoting
learning, and keeping demands on faculty time manageable. In
this session, faculty who teach large courses shared some of their large
class strategies. Participants brought their own large class syllabi, discussed
about their learning objectives, their teaching and learning strategies to
achieve them, grading whether they have been achieved, promoting inquiry based
learning, and keeping the work load manageable.
