Adapting Team-Based POGIL Techniques to Justice Classes: Is the Lecture Dead?

• In Event: Innovations in Teaching - 1

Abstract

Team-based learning techniques have become common in recent years, each predicated on the supposed failures of standard lecture practices. The current paper examines a wide variety of uses of Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) techniques in university settings and presents the author’s experience with team-based POGIL in Justice classes. Although the technique appears to have general acceptance, the paper discusses modifications which may be necessary for successful implementation in Justice courses.
