As a tertiary teacher, I’m always looking for ways to increase opportunities for participation and collaboration in my classes. One of my preferred methods of doing this is to create virtual pin boards organised around the topics we are investigating and ask students to find or make something and share it on our virtual board for comment and/or critique. Active learning strategies such as these are a great way to increase engagement beyond simple discussion, appeal to students who aren’t so comfortable with sharing their thoughts verbally and also gives me valuable insight into the learning that’s taking place in my class.
