Description

The speaker is passionate about undergraduate teaching and research and he believes in the holistic development of students by integrating teaching and research at the undergraduate level. He has developed hundreds of cartoon clicker questions to provoke vigorous group discussions on critical thinking questions in classrooms, created corresponding hands-on active learning labs to further investigate their understanding and created modular research projects so that students can gain authentic research experiences.
In this talk he will focus on the use of concept cartoon clicker questions in classrooms to engage students, incite discussions and promote critical thinking.
