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.

Social sciences Psychology

In this integrative assignment, students analyze their everyday activities through the lens of various learning theories.

Health science

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

Physics

A first class ice-breaker activity introducing the nature of science.

Interdisciplinary Health science

In teams, students interact, share information on their profession, and create cases where each discipline is needed

Chemistry

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

STEM Biology

STEM Mathematics

Interdisciplinary STEM Physics

This activity helps students improve their quality of reading annotations using platforms like Perusall.

Social sciences

STEM Chemistry

In this activity, students review chemical bond concepts, determine structures & calculate Hydrogen Deficiency (IHD).
