The Arqus Alliance invites Arqus teachers and academics to an upcoming online Teaching Innovation workshop about collaborative learning. Join on Thursday, 25 September 2025, 14:00-16:00 CEST.
Learning is a social process. Cooperation and collaboration in classes can boost student engagement and retention of input and are thus important in improving learning outcomes. This practical session will explain how and why, and at the same time give participants personal experience of a variety of activities that promote effective student-to-student collaboration. The activities can be used in classes of all disciplines and with groups of any size.
Participation is limited to 30 participants. Make sure to secure your spot!
