TRC Workshop: Jigsaw Method In-Person

A Jigsaw is an easy and fun tool for increasing engagement in a class that can be used in a range of classes and subject areas. It gives agency and responsibility for learning back to the students. In this lunch-and-learn meeting, we (Drs. Sherry Truffin and Alison Polasik) will explain what a jigsaw is and give several examples of how we are using them in both English and Engineering classes to engage students, help them to access higher levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy, break up long lecture periods, and (we believe) improve learning. Jigsaws are difficult to explain in words – and a big of a puzzle to figure out – but once you do, you will have a powerful tool in the fight for student learning and against student boredom.
