International Forum on Active Learning in Classrooms (IFALC) at the University of Minnesota focuses on advancing practice and research on active learning classrooms.
Join us for the 2024 International Forum on Active Learning in Classrooms on August 1-2 at the University of Minnesota Rochester.
The IFALC features session formats designed to provide opportunities for participants to demonstrate innovative practices and research that leverage the advantages of active learning pedagogies and learning spaces that may or may not be technology-enhanced.
The IFALC brings together a wide variety of institutions to:
Examine common challenges relevant to the effective implementation of active learning, and chart a path for their resolution;
Share successful practices that have enriched the active learning experience of students and their instructors in higher education;
Build and deepen networks with colleagues and industry partners in order to advance efforts across strategic and capital planning, curriculum design, and evidence-based classroom practices;
Use evidence to support and encourage success for a diverse cohort of learners;
This forum is framed by the alignment between the use of evidence-based active and inclusive learning pedagogies in classrooms, and achieving the academic priorities of many universities and colleges such as increased inclusion, engagement, learning, retention, graduation rates and greater equity in outcome measures. Since these priorities are of broad interest to all working in higher education, international participation is most welcome.
