"Peer-Assisted Strategies: Increasing Student Engagement and Academic Performance," a faculty development workshop, will be held on Monday, April 10, at 1:00 p.m. in Butler Library 181B.

The relationship between active student engagement (e.g., asking and answering questions, writing, discussing, and debating) in class and learning has been one of the most robust and consistent empirical findings in educational research over the past four decades (Heward & Wood, 2015). Yet, it is not easy to engage all students, particularly during small- and large-group instruction. This session will teach participants how to use peer-assisted strategies to engage all learners.

Facilitated by Lawrence Maheady, Horace Mann Endowed Chair in the Exceptional Education Department.

Light refreshments will be provided. Please register through the Workshop Registration System.
