What active teaching methods can be used with (very) large groups? Is it possible to use a variety of teaching strategies in lecture halls?

Conference as part of the Pedagogical Day organized by the Joint Service for Pedagogical Innovation Support (CSIP).

The CSIP is hosting a conference on active teaching methods in lecture halls and very large student groups.

The aim is to discuss the following questions: How can we combine educational transformation with lecture hall teaching? How can we encourage interaction within large groups? How can we develop diverse teaching strategies in lecture halls? And above all, what does this mean in practical terms?

To answer these questions, we are pleased to welcome Emmanuel Sylvestre, Director of the Teaching Support Center (CSE) at the University of Lausanne.

The aim of this conference is to stimulate discussion on how, but also why, to implement active, diversified teaching methods and techniques in this unique context of large groups, as well as on the implications for students and teachers.
