Workshop Strategies

Here you’ll find nearly 1000 innovative ways that educators across the curriculum have used or adapted the structures/strategies they learned in an On Course Campus Workshop or an On Course National Workshop. Research has demonstrated that using active learning structures to deliver content (concepts or skills) allows students to learn more and remember it longer. See Learner-Centered Education.

PLEASE NOTE: Strategies for each workshop are intended for educators who have attended that workshop. The active learning structure is explained (and experienced) during the workshop, but that explanation is not included with the strategy in this section. Readers who have not yet attended an On Course workshop can access an archive of hundreds of Best Practices intended for use by all educators.
