The Art of Teaching with Discussion
Strategies for Engaging Students in Discussion
Thursday, September 4, 2014 · 12 - 1:30 PM
Do you find that your class discussions often consist of a dialogue with one enthusiastic student? Or at best, a ping-pong conversation with a handful of students? Do you struggle to get students to prepare for a meaningful discussion in the first place? Do you find it difficult to get students to dig deeper into ideas? In this session, three faculty share their strategies for getting students to prepare for discussion and engaging them in ways that deepen and expand their understanding. Lunch is provided. Panelists include:
Rebecca Adelman, Media and Communication Studies
Robin Farabaugh, English
Tim Phin, Ancient Studies
