The pandemic brought new attention to learning and teaching methods — and which styles of teaching prove most effective and engaging. One approach dominating the conversation is active learning, a style that eschews the traditional lecture format in favor of group discussions, hand-on work, and problem solving activities. While research has shown this technique to be effective, will faculty be willing to adjust their teaching styles again?

The Chronicle convened a panel of experts to share their thoughts on this topic in a recent virtual forum discussion. Download Explorations of Active Learning: What College Leaders Need to Know to discover our panelists’ thoughts on:

Addressing student and faculty perceptions of active learning. How does data relating to the effectiveness of active learning differ from student misperceptions of their own learning?
How colleges can best support active learning on their campuses. Faculty mentorship and peer observation can provide important learning opportunities for teachers.
Creating spaces for active learning. What can active learning classrooms on campus do to further support the mission on campus?
