The SDF Active Learning Special Interest Group (ALSIG) is aimed at staff developers and L&D facilitators who have a keen interest in creating active, participatory and experiential opportunities for learners that are engaging, impactful and deliver quality learning outcomes.
We want to create a community and a space that encourages sharing of best and emergent practice, that is experimental and innovative, and that seeks to engage with and contribute to the discourse on active learning.
Meeting 3 -4 times a year, this SIG will provide a regular and interactive mechanism to:
- Hear from a variety of guest speakers who utilise active learning methods and techniques
- Discuss and share ideas that actively engage learners
- Connect and collaborate with others who have a similar passion for embedding active learning in their professional practice
- Experiment with active learning methods and techniques through peer-learning opportunities, such as active learning playgrounds
Full details of each ALSIG workshop, dates & information on how to take part will be circulated via the SDF Jiscmail.
