Creating a Productive Academic Mindset in Your Classroom through Active Learning

Wednesday, January 22, 2020 | 3:30 - 4:30 p.m.

Event Type: Webinar

Facilitator: Tris Utschig

Employing active learning techniques does not automatically produce high quality learning, nor does it necessarily contribute to a productive academic mindset in students. While a large body of research shows that incorporating active learning techniques into the classroom can significantly improve student achievement of learning outcomes, how can we use it to produce a productive academic mindset as well? In this webinar, we will explore how we can create productive academic mindsets by engaging students in ways that really make a difference. Specifically, we will consider three components identified in the research that teachers can influence student mindset in the classroom: emotional engagement, cognitive-emotional engagement, and behavioral engagement.
