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.

Health science STEM

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

Health science STEM

Student groups will generate an assigned patient profile and care plan by using AI, verify the references and present.

Mathematics

In teams, students explore the binary number system and create parameters for an octal number system.

Health science

Before class, students read an article and gather 5 elements. In class, they "pool" findings and sort into categories.

Health science STEM

The purpose of this activity is to deepen students' understanding of cardiac pathophysiology.

Health science Biology

In teams, students will build a pedigree chart and determine inheritance patterns using inclusive pedigree practices.

Humanities

The aim of this single-class activity is to help students consolidate their knowledge and review concepts seen in class.

Chemistry STEM

Students learn how to problem solve and review their peers in a low stakes situation (no grades).

Applied arts Health science Social sciences

The purpose of this activity is to familiarize students with the potential of online tools for problem-solving.

Chemistry STEM

This activity encourages students to consider the nature of a chemistry problem and to identify the tools to solve it.
