This session will focus on incorporating active learning and course engagement to provide students with meaningful learning experiences.

Participants will then break into groups (based on course type) for a guided discussion about creating active and engaged academic experiences for students. By engaging in this session, participants will be able to share their experiences with and/or questions about incorporating active learning and course engagement and to learn from the facilitators and their campus colleagues about ways to create and sustain active learning and engagement in courses.
