Beyond Listening: EB2006

Beyond Listening: A Workshop on Strategies that Actively Engage Students in the Classroom, April 2, Sun., 3:00 PM, Convention Center, 212, Moscone South, San Francisco (Sponsored by: the Division for Pharmacology Education and the Division for Systems and Integrative Pharmacology). 
Session Description: Students’ attention spans are limited, so the most well-crafted lectures can reach a point of diminishing returns. In this workshop, leaders will provide descriptions of teaching/learning techniques that can be integrated into classroom lectures. Attendees will participate in activities and discussions about instructional approaches that engage both undergraduates and medical school students interactively in a traditional classroom setting. Attendance is limited to 40 people.
Facilitators: Ray Orzechowski, Carol Weiss, Katie Huggett and Bill Jeffries
