Portfolios help students participate in the process of learning while also creating a product that can be assessed as part of a course or shared with potential employers. Join us for this session on how to implement portfolio assignments in your course.
Critical Thinking

In this session, we will discuss the importance of critical thinking as it prepares students for a lifetime of thinking and learning independently. We will cover ways to implement critical thinking exercises in the classroom, knowing what you know (metacognition), in-context learning, and inductive / deductive reasoning.
