Event Information:
This talk is part of the Physics and Astronomy Education Group's brown-bag teaching series. Please feel free to bring your lunch. Coffee and cookies will be provided.

Two-Stage Collaborative Group Exams are an easy to implement technique that leverages students’ desire to discuss challenging exam questions with each other immediately after an exam. This instructional technique adds an additional group stage immediately after a traditional solo exam. The format for this event is that we will make a brief informal presentation and then facilitate a discussion around the technique, hoping to leverage the expertise in the room in order to share implementation advice. The presentation will cover how to implement this technique, what the literature says about its effectiveness and also offer some best practices advice developed as part of an ongoing TLEF-funded project.
