About the Workshop
Dr. Beichner is the creator of the "Scale Up Project"--creating active learning environments with student-centered activities in large or small classes.
The UF College of Education is sponsoring this free workshop in its new, "scaled up" Multidisciplinary Learning Laboratory, where the latest technology is used to convert the classroom into collaborative thinking stations.
The Takeaway
Participating educators will learn how to effectively turn traditional instruction on its head--where students become teachers, with less lecture and more engagement, and most class time is spent with students working together. It all starts with how the class and room are structured.
