The half-day sessions are split into four different workshops. The following is simply a brief description of what to expect.9.00 - 9.05am or 1.30 - 1.35pm - Welcome and introduction
First session (9.05 - 9.30am or 1.35 - 1.55pm)led by Mhairi Stratton centres around the question of “What does Active Learning mean to me as a practitioner?”
The second session (9.30 - 9.55am or 1.55 - 2.15pm) led by Jen Macaulay will focus on “How active is your space to learn in?”
We will then have the opportunity to visit classrooms to see active learning then the whole group will meet to have a feedback session and plenary on arising issues.
Next we will have the opportunity to have tea and coffee.
The third session will be led by Stephanie Gilhooly (10.40 - 11.10am or 2.50 - 3.15pm) on “Planning and Assessing Active Learning”
