Interactive Lecturing: Combining Lectures and Active Learning Methods

This workshop aims to demonstrate approaches to interactive lecturing, which involves combining lectures and active learning strategies. Prof. Wong will share adaptable classroom activities that may help address challenges instructors face in a learning environment with a mixture of students of different levels of language competency. Participants will experience, through working with two short excerpts from Macbeth, the difference between lecture and interactive lecturing.

Dr. De Chavez will share some of his experiences experimenting with interactive lecturing in his GE courses (including moments of unexpected success and disheartening frustration!). He will also speak about his thought process in designing a lesson on poetry writing that incorporates active learning activities in the conventional lecture. He hopes that his short talk will generate discussion about the promises and challenges of interactive lecturing.

Wednesday, 27 February. 2:30–3:45 PM
Room: E3-1032
Speakers: Prof. Katrine Wong (DCTLE/FAH), Dr. Jeremy de Chavez (FAH)
Target audience: Academic Staff & Teaching Assistants
