Group discussions are widely used in the college classroom as a way for students to explore, understand, and reflect on course content. Students have the opportunity to think through ideas while using peers as a sounding board. Effective group discussions are equitable, structured, and have a learning objective. This seminar will explore criteria for designing an effective discussion assignment, including writing quality discussion questions and facilitating positive group exchange.
This seminar is part of the Student Engagement Series & Panel Discussion. The series includes evidence-based learning activities and strategies to prepare students for learning, engage in meaningful discussions and group work, and capture attention with complementary activities during lectures. Instructors and staff who are looking for specific and practical ways to increase engagement or simply freshen up a course are welcome to attend. Refreshments will be served.
