Room
This Room is designed for group work and student-active methodology and may be booked by those employing research-intensive or student-active pedagogies in the classroom wishing to engage in experimental, student-active sessions that employ the advanced, student-use technology in the room.
To ensure that the Room is suited to the design and student-use technology in the room, priority of assignment of the room will be based on pedagogical criteria rather than a first-come/first serve or per se basis.
The Active learning room is located on the 4th floor in the library extension (5E.438).
The room capacity is 82 people.
Policy
- The room is set up for blended learning design and workshops. Faculty ensures the desks and technology are returned to the design and default modes before leaving the classroom. Dots have been placed on the floor to indicate student desk placement. The faculty ensures that students return the desks to these designated spots before ending the class.
- Please also make an effort to end class on time, as the next instructor will likely need time to set up the technology or student activity before her or his class begins.
- Faculty assigned to the room are requested to attend a workshop on pedagogical benefits and use of the technology before the class begins.
