Please bring your lunch and join Dr. Marva Sweeney-Nixon (Biology) next Thursday, February 14 from 11:30-12:20 in the Main Building Faculty Lounge for a discussion of the “Case-study Method of Teaching Science (and other disciplines)... "Start With a Story." **** Armed with a SCENT travel grant, I attended the annual conference of the National Center for Case Study Teaching in Science. Now it’s time to bring others into the paradigm of using cases – student-centered stories, educational messages, problems, real world messages, dilemmas – to engage students so they connect new knowledge to old, hone their decision-making skills, and acknowledge other perspectives. Let’s discuss the whys and hows, barriers and solutions to using cases in teaching. We hope to see you there! Questions? Email Gerald at the FDO: gwandio@upei.ca
