Program

Two important goals of the consortium are broadening the use of IBL in the New England area and creating a regional community of IBL practitioners. At this particular workshop we will focus on experiencing an IBL classroom and discussing features of IBL (big tent). Round tables give everyone the chance to discuss a topic they are interested in or working on.

We will also use this workshop as an opportunity to discuss the role of IBL in inclusive learning, an important connection that is ripe for further exploration and research.

The conference will actively involve and engage all participants throughout the following sessions (times are tentative):

• 9:30 Registration opens
• 10-noon Morning Live Classrooms: You will have a choice between a Differential Equations and an Algebra class.
• Noon -1pm Lunch & Community Building
• 1-2pm Round Tables: Student Buy-in, Specifications/Mastery Grading, Opening up (traditional) Tasks, Small ways into teaching with IBL
• 2-4pm Afternoon Session: Equity in the IBL Classroom.
