In this workshop we'll explore the use of PBL as a small-group teaching method which promotes self-directed independent learning. This is an interactive and practice-based workshop, providing examples, ideas and tools to support staff who are thinking about developing this type of teaching. Traditionally used in medicine, we'll consider how this approach can be of benefit to students from a wide variety of disciplines.
I'm from Social Sciences, and I'd come because: I want to explore different ways of increasing student involvement and ownership in tutorials.
Tea and coffee will be available.
Please note that these CPD workshops are only open to University of Glasgow staff (including Graduate Teaching Assistants / Demonstrators).
