SUMMARY:Fostering Student Engagement with Liberating Structures (Part 1)
DESCRIPTION:Discover the practical impact of Liberating Structures on student engagement. Liberating Structures are a collection of simple\, adaptable teaching methods (33+ and growing) that make it easier to spark participation\, deepen reflection\, and generate ideas—without adding a lot of extra prep.\n \nAcross two interactive virtual sessions (you can attend one or both)\, you’ll experience Liberating Structures you can use right away in online or in-person classes. You’ll participate in activities which invite more voices into the room while discussing real teaching challenges such as AI in education and assessment practices. You’ll leave knowing how to find Liberating  Structures resources and communities which will help you continue to experiment and learn.\n \nBy the end of this workshop you will be able to:\n  \n\nExplain what Liberating Structures are and how they can increase student reflection and engagement\nIdentify several Liberating Structures you could use in your post-secondary teaching context\nLocate resources and communities to support continued practice with Liberating Structures\n\n  \nWho Should Attend: This training is ideal for faculty\, staff\, and those who facilitate workshops or training. \nDate and Time:\n\n\n\nTuesday\, March 10\, 2026\nTime: 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm\nFormat: Online\n\n\n\n \n \nRegistration is now closed.\n \n  \nFor more information email facultydevelopment@jibc.ca.\n  \n\n  \nAbout Our Facilitator:\nBeth Cougler Blom is a facilitator and learning designer who works with clients—particularly in post-secondary\, non-profit\, and government environments—to create engaging learning experiences\, both in person and online.
