Active Learning Activities

Active learning activities are tailored to specific learning outcomes and content. They incorporate one or more of the evidence-based strategies. Structured to expose their theoretical underpinnings, the activities can be used by practitioners and researchers alike.

STEM Health science

Students engage in a virtual simulation using therapeutic techniques, risk assessment, and interventions.

STEM Mathematics

Students are given four 2-stage tests throughout a semester; 1st stage written individually, 2nd students work in groups.

Social sciences Humanities

Scaffolded debate that explores the nuances of a belief that the teacher has introduced.

STEM Health science
