Facilitating Small Group Learning: Tips for Successful Student Engagement


Fall 2021 CIPhER seminars will only be offered via Zoom.
 
12:00-1:30 p.m., Wednesday, December 15, 2021, Via Zoom
 
Small group, team-based learning is a critical component to the Eshelman School of Pharmacy curriculum. The curriculum maximizes interaction between student and professor, thus necessitating the need for trained facilitators to support student learning in small groups. During this program, we will identify, describe, and apply key skills that will support small group facilitation to ensure that all students have an opportunity to engage in thoughtful productive conversations. At the end of the program, participants will leave with strategies they can implement in their small groups.  
 
Program Agenda:
12:00 - 1:00 PM   Faciliating Small Group Learning (School faculty/staff and guests) -  CE is offered for this part of the program

Learning Objectives: At the end of this program, participants will be able to:
  1. Describe the role of the facilitator during small group team-based learning sessions
