Active and engaging teaching practices invite students to participate fully in their own learning, moving beyond passive reception of information toward deeper understanding and application. This playlist highlights strategies and approaches that foster interaction, collaboration, and critical thinking in the classroom.

Basic/Essential Needs for Educators
This playlist contains video recordings, PowerPoint slides, and handouts from the Basic Needs Series hosted in Spring 2024.
