Special session – Educational Issues:
From passive students to active learners: reimagining education with student-centered tools and unlocking engagement in the digital age
Tuesday, 2 July, 17:00 to 19:00. Silver Room
Organized by FEBS and IUBMB
- Enhancing learning through student-centered teaching methods — Sara Petchey (University of Zurich, Institute of Education)
Practical tools and strategies to move beyond the lecture, unleash the power of analogies and embrace student misconceptions. - Fostering sustainable communities of learning to promote learner engagement — Fun Man Fung (Department of Chemistry, National University of Singapore)
A framework for building vibrant learning communities that bridge the social divide, catalyze active engagement, and champion inclusivity. - Interactive workshops
Two workshops will provide space to implement these learnings, ask questions, and collaborate with fellow educators as we collectively envision the future of education.
