Conversations@FAS: Active Learning, February 11, 2011

From the creator

A Chinese proverb asserts a familiar truism about teaching and learning - "tell me and I will forget, show me and I may remember, involve me and I will understand." Neuroscience research is beginning to bear this out, showing that students' active engagement in the classroom leads to longer retention of information. Join the first Conversations@FAS to explore the topic of active learning, the impact of new technologies on teaching, and the changing role of the professor in the classroom today. Christopher Winship Diker-Tishman Professor of Sociology Diane Paulus Artistic Director of the American Repertory Theater Professor of the Practice of Theatre David Malan Lecturer on Computer Science
