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.

STEM Physics

In groups, students create GIFs to demonstrate and explain how mechanic principles apply in real-life scenarios.

Interdisciplinary Health science

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

Languages and Literature

In this multiple-class activity, students write three 250 texts, then learn to revise their writing based on peer feedback.

Interdisciplinary Humanities

STEM Physics

Students learn to build a conceptual model describing a situation involving an accelerating charged particle.

Languages and Literature

In this multiple-class activity, students write a “texte expressif”, applying theory & grammatical lessons learned in class.

STEM Chemistry

In this activity, students are presented with the concepts of nomenclature in organic chemistry to encourage self learning.

STEM Chemistry

Using cards in a "Chemicard' deck, students determine which ionic compounds are most likely to form.

STEM Physics

Students use the Tracker software to analyze projectile motion to determine which equations fit the plots produced.

STEM Physics

Students learn to analyze data using spreadsheet programs and gain a deeper understanding of conservation of energy.
