Lights, Camera, Learning! Making Lectures Fun with a Dash of Drama
Kelly Willemssens, PhD (She/her/hers), Clemson University
Learning through storytelling is a popular teaching technique. In my ecology class, I took it a step further by incorporating dramatic performances to engage students. Imagine walking into a classroom where an unexpected scenario unfolds, compelling students to solve problems and learn critical concepts in an immersive environment. This session will reveal how adding a dash of drama can transform traditional lectures into captivating and memorable learning experiences, encouraging active participation and deep understanding.
