IU Southeast SoTL Conference - Session 3, Meeting #2: Five Forms of Interactive Learning

Dr. John-Robert Curtin, Indiana University Southeast

This workshop is designed to present the five forms of interactive learning that should be built into online, blended, and face-to-face lessons in course development. It is built on the premise that in order to promote critical thinking students need several interactive opportunities to process and understand the material. The workshop also presents how students describe interactivity, which differs from the faculty definition. Concrete suggestions and examples will be presented, along with other pedagogical approaches to enrich courses. The presenter has spent over 20 years developing online courses for over 120 universities and organizations worldwide and has served on the Advisory Board of the United States Distance Learning Association.
