Foundations of Effective Education Sessions
This online module is the first component of the Interactive Education Institute, which aims to train Annual Meeting faculty on interactive instructional strategies that reflect principles of adult learning. The module starts by comparing documented effectiveness of instructional types and instructional formats that promote active learning. It then describes three principles of adult learning and approaches for supporting each before providing details about six strategies for encouraging active learning. In the final section of the online module, learners apply the concepts covered in the module to draft initial ideas for how they might support adult learners and incorporate opportunities for active learning in their upcoming Annual Meeting session.
