Practice Tips from Faculty
Posted in: Teaching Tips
“I usually do a hybrid of your tips that gets conversation going based on the class topic. For instance, in my leadership class I have students journal privately online about the first time they noticed their leadership ability. Then in class, I have them pair up to share their entry and also discuss their leadership style. Afterwards, we go around the room sharing reflections on the experience of journaling, working in pairs and the leadership journey. This way we learn fun facts about each other and we quickly have unique information to remember about everyone. Students love this! I do it in an OB course as well.”
