Active Engagement in Large (and Small!) Lecture Classes
Join Dr. Brian Jones, Colorado State University, to explore techniques for keeping students active and engaged during College Physics classes.
In this webinar, we discuss techniques for keeping students active and engaged during College Physics classes, from using “clicker questions” (with and without the clickers) to having students work in-class examples themselves. We share practical strategies that you can put to use in your class tomorrow.

Dr. Brian Jones, Colorado State University
Brian Jones has won several teaching awards at Colorado State University during his 27 years teaching in the Department of Physics. His teaching focus in recent years has been the College Physics class. Since beginning work as a co-author on Knight, Jones, Field College Physics, he has taught over 5,000 students, and he brings this experience to each edition of the book. In 2011, Brian was awarded the Robert A. Millikan Medal of the American Association of Physics Teachers for his work as Director of the Little Shop of Physics, a hands-on science outreach program. He is actively exploring the effectiveness of methods of informal science education and how to extend these lessons to the college classroom. Brian travels extensively to work with educators at all levels, and has been invited to give workshops on techniques of science instruction in countries on five different continents.
