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.

Health science

Before class, students read an article and gather 5 elements. In class, they "pool" findings and sort into categories.

Interdisciplinary Health science

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