2015-16 Faculty Fellow Dr. Robynne M. Lock presents Transforming a Course to Studio Mode: Strategies for Creating a Student-Centered Active Learning Environment. Dr. Lock will give a brief overview of the implementation of studio mode in physics and the ongoing efforts in the program. This will include the reporting of data showing its success. The remainder of the workshop will be participant-centred and focus on how what has worked in physics can be adapted for other departments.

Title: Qualtrics--It's a Beautiful Tool, But I Can't Use It.
Description: Need help getting started with Qualtrics? In this mini workshop, you will receive peer-to-peer support from a research ambassador who will help you to familiarize with the basics of Qualtrics and how to use the software. This session is introductory and targeted at attendees who have little or no experience with Qualtrics and those who need a re-fresher before undertaking their next survey task.
When: April 20th, 3-4 p.m.
Where: CFEI Conference Room, Gee Library Suite 173
