Biggio Center offering fall semester EASL Academy workshops

The Biggio Center is offering EASL Academy workshops throughout the fall semester. These half-day long, interactive workshops will prepare faculty to teach in an EASL classroom by introducing best practices for maximizing learning using the unique technology, furniture and pedagogies of active learning classrooms.

In addition to test-driving the instructional technology in the room and experiencing collaborative learning from a student’s perspective, participants will engage with a range of learning activities supported by the EASL rooms. The sessions are designed to model the principles of engaged and active student learning promised by the design of the space.

These workshops will prepare and qualify faculty to teach in the Mell Classroom building and the new Academic Classroom and Laboratory Complex, or ACLC, but the activities and goals are designed to support and enhance educators' ability to teach in any instructional space. Faculty of all ranks, staff, post-docs and graduate students are welcome.
