As POGIL practitioners, we don’t work in a vacuum. Colleagues and administrators have an interest in what we are doing in our classrooms. Join our fellow practitioners; Kristy Mardis, Sheila Barbach and Alex Grushow as they discuss their experiences when talking with others about POGIL.
One of the process skills that is central to POGIL teaching is the ability of students to be aware of their thinking and learning. Are your students practicing metacognition in your classroom? Will your students continue to be metacognitive after they have left your classroom? In episode 8 of season 3 of the POGIL Podcast, Siobhan Julian talks with Mary Twist van Opstal of Harper College and McHenry County College and Marty Perry of University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences about the challenges they have experienced and strategies they have used to help their students develop this important process skill.ReferencesPowerful TeachingELIPSSMake It Stick
