Description: In this session, educators involved in teaching across undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs will start by introducing the concept of using “pauses” in classroom settings to promote active learning. They will then share their own experiences using pauses in a variety of small and large classroom settings, including experiences that went well and those that didn’t.
