Beyond the Breakout: Peer Teaching with ‘Jigsaw’ and ‘The Final Word’

  • 27 January 2021 10:00am – 10:30am
  • Virtual Event
  • Event Host: TEP
  • Event Type: Workshop
  • Teaching Pillar: Research-Informed

Discussion structures increase student equity in our classrooms and (in many instances) facilitate greater student engagement with course content. The “jigsaw” structure is one example of this; studies indicate it correlates to an increased sense of autonomy, motivation, and social connection in the classroom. This micro-workshop with TEP and UO Online will review the components of the jigsaw and other small-group protocols, and the goals they support. Structures can be used in synchronous large and small enrollment courses. There will also be optional time from 10:30-11 a.m. for participants who are interested to practice with Zoom.
