Active Learning: Full-Class Tools

banner

Hi,

In this page there is a collection of active learning tools for the whole class, that can help in innovation and reflection. Each video is available on YouTube and for download. Also included is a brief description of each technique and I have created a PowerPoint presentation for you to download and use.

hope it's useful,
Damian
