Is It Time to Stop Talking?

Find out how you can improve your current courses and inspire your students right away.

Best of all, you don’t have to resort to trial and error. Learn what other educators are doing to add variety and incorporate active-learning strategies into their courses.

This 60-minute Magna Online Seminar will help shift your perspective on your role in the classroom and give you the confidence to try new techniques to improve student performance-all without redesigning your courses or rewriting your syllabi. Think tweaks, not transformations.

No, it’s not too good to be true. You really don’t have to totally revamp your courses to get better results. Small changes can make a big impact, and simply breaking up the monotony of daily lectures can make the lectures themselves more successful when you do deliver them.
