I do, and I understand: The value of active learning in the classroom [conference presentation]. 2019 Experience-based Learning Institute Annual Conference, Chicago, IL.https://hdl.handle.net/1805/25135An ancient Chinese proverb states “I hear, and I forget; I see, and I remember; I do, and I understand.” Faculty are constantly challenged to create new and engaging activities that will facilitate a students’ understanding of the material. Purposefully designed learning experiences can accelerate student understanding, and encourage learners to become more motivated and engaged in the classroom. In this session, a faculty member from the Indiana University Kelley School of Business Indianapolis will present different classroom activities from courses that allow the students to actively participate in their own learning. These exercises can easily be used in traditional classroom learning but are designed to encourage a flipped classroom approach. Application and hands-on learning has shown to be successful in student learning. The activities demonstrated in this session promote the students’ soft skills and encourage critical thinking and problem solving skills. This fun and interactive session will encourage attendees to participate in numerous classroom-tested strategies designed to improve their students’ soft skills. Attendees will also have the opportunity to share activities from their own classrooms.en-USAttribution 4.0 Internationalactive learningpedagogyPresentation
