Team-Based Learning with Learning Catalytics
Why don’t students remember what they learn, even when they study hard? How can we help students boost their learning strategies to increase their success in and outside of the classroom? In this session, we will engage in an easy to implement, research-based strategy for using peer collaboration and brain science to help people remember what they learn in educational settings and transfer their learning to new contexts. After this session, participants will be able to facilitate experiences so that the most important things for students to learn stick. You'll need your computer or a wifi-enabled smart phone for this presentation!

Exploring the Innovative Pedagogy of Peer Instruction
How can I help my students learn in ways that pique their interest and enrich their subject matter understanding? We will explore this perennial question by considering an innovative, research-based teaching method called Peer Instruction (PI). Developed by Dr. Eric Mazur to address major gaps in students' conceptual knowledge of physics at Harvard University, this interactive pedagogical method is now widely used by thousands of instructors across the world. PI leverages the power of social learning and the latest advances in instructional technology to confront students' misconceptions and activate their minds while providing instant feedback to faculty. Most of all teaching with Peer Instruction is fun for teachers and students alike. Attendees will participate in live demonstrations of Peer Instruction and test out Learning Catalytics the  classroom response systems used in OnRamps.
