LEAP Indiana Virtual Prof. Dev. Speaker – Christine Harrington
September 27 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am
This session is part of the LEAP Indiana Virtual Professional Development Series.
Keeping Us Engaged: Student Perspectives (and Research Evidence) on What Works and Why
Dr. Christine Harrington
The student’s voice is often missing from conversations about student success. Come hear stories from students attending various colleges and universities across the nation about what professors can do to motivate and engage students. Discover the research evidence behind the strategies suggested by students and walk away with an action plan to increase student engagement. During this session, we’ll cover a lot of ground- from the first day of class activities to the power of relationships and teaching strategies.
Dr. Christine Harrington has been working in higher education for over 20 years, predominately in the community college sector. Currently, she is a professor in the Community College Leadership doctoral program at Morgan State University. Christine is the author of numerous books and articles related to teaching and learning and student success and is frequently invited to give plenary presentations at national and local conferences as well as at colleges and universities across the nation (https://www.scholarlyteaching.org/)
