Description:

"The POGIL Project is not about egos and CVs, but about putting the students first and providing teachers with tools to optimize learning."—Shawn Simonson, Boise State University Watch and see how The POGIL Project continues to work toward its vision of "an educational system where student-centered learning is the norm."Many student-centered instructional techniques can be effective for achieving valuable learning goals in the classroom. POGIL differs from other approaches in two particular ways. The first is the explicit and conscious emphasis on developing essential and purposeful process skills. The second is the use and design of distinctive classroom materials. Three defining characteristics of these materials are: A POGIL activity is designed to be used with self-managed teams that employ the instructor as a facilitator of learning rather than as a source of information. A POGIL activity guides students through an exploration to construct, deepen, refine, and/or integrate understanding of relevant disciplinary content. The application and development of at least one of the targeted process skills is embedded in the structure and/or content of a POGIL activity and is not solely dependent upon the facilitation of the activity in the classroom or laboratory. 1-Day Private POGIL Workshop, Strake Jesuit PreparatoryHouston, TXThis workshop will introduce teachers to Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) and will explore the benefits of this approach to active learning in the classroom. Participants will experience a POGIL-based learning environment, analyze activities, understand how guided inquiry is structured in a POGIL classroom, and consider classroom facilitation and other issues related to the implementation of POGIL.Facilitator: Debra Driscoll About This Event 2020 POGIL Writers Retreat at Seattle Pacific UniversitySeattle, WashingtonAdmittance into the 2020 Writers Retreat will be decided via an Application process.
