Using ELMS to Promote Active Learning in Large Enrollment Courses

Do you want to see how other faculty members have been successfully using ELMS (powered by Blackboard) to enhance teaching? Do you want to learn best practices for using ELMS in teaching and learning from your peers?

Come join us to learn how Dr. Ann C. Smith and Laura Cathcart (College of Chemical and Life Sciences) have used ELMS to promote active learning in large enrollment courses. In BSCI 223, General Microbiology, ELMS is used for course communication and management, as well as an additional learning space. In this Brown Bag discussion, they will highlight how ELMS is used to support various active learning projects in this course of 300 students.

No registration is required.
Light refreshments will be provided.
