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.

Languages and Literature

These gamified activities will help sensitize students to the nuances of diction and allow them to work together.

Chemistry

Students use PhET simulation to learn how factors affect reaction rate (collision theory) through hands-on activities

STEM Mathematics

Social sciences STEM Biology

Environmental science

In this activity, students learn to define sustainability and apply this to a single Montreal neighbourhood.

Languages and Literature

In this multiple-class activity, students write a “texte expressif”, applying theory & grammatical lessons learned in class.

Languages and Literature

In this multiple-class activity, students build a toolkit of essay-writing skills through analyzing a short story text.
