This document discusses techniques for promoting active learning in tutorial sessions. It emphasizes the importance of active listening and effective questioning. For active listening, tutors should make eye contact, nod, and respond appropriately to nonverbal cues. They should also paraphrase and ask questions to ensure understanding. Effective questioning involves using Bloom's Taxonomy to ask higher-order thinking questions, promoting collaboration through techniques like think-pair-share, and creating an engaging environment where students are willing to participate. The goal is to put the onus of learning on the student through activities and dialog rather than passive learning.
This is a whole class activity designed to facilitate student reflection on a project. The intent is to begin to build a student's ability to self-reflect on the learning process.

Giving feedback to students is often mutually unsatisfactory: it requires a great deal of time, yet it isn't always accessed. Can we do something better? This presentation was used to kick off a practitioner workshop back in 2014.

and
Questioning
LEARNING Techniques
Developed by Natasha Ford

University of Central Florida
2. WHAT IS ACTIVE LEARNING?
What does the term Active Learning mean to you?
What are some techniques or activities you use to
encourage your students to learn actively ?
Active Learning is a general term for various
instructional techniques that put the onus of learning
on the learner, assuming that they are a pot to be
stirred, not filled.
3. PROMOTING ACTIVE LEARNING
Engaging students in Active Learning is
SARC’s central mission, and should be your
goal during daily tutorial sessions.
Promote Active Learning in your tutorial
sessions by…
1. Utilize Active Listening.
2. Promote Inquiry through Effective Questioning
Techniques.
3. Provide an environment that engages the student
through dialog, activities, and tutoring techniques.
5. WHY LISTEN?
Have you had formal training in writing?
Public speaking?
What role does listening play in
communication?
Can you listen to something a person ISN’T
saying?
What qualities make up a ―good‖ listener?
6. ACTIVE LISTENING IS…
Listening to and confirming understanding of what another
person says as well as the emotions and feelings underlying
the message.
GOAL: to ensure that understanding is accurate so instruction
can be directed toward the student’s actual needs, and the
student can be encouraged to engage with the material.
READ: Active Listening by Carl R. Rogers & Richard E. Farson
(1987)
Rogers & Farson state the basics of Active Listening as:
Respond to feelings (note non-verbal cues)
Listening for total meaning without judgment
Feed-back what you heard to the speaker
7. HOW TO DEMONSTRATE ACTIVE
LISTENING…
Demonstrate active listening when others are
speaking by:
making eye contact
nodding appropriately
leaning slightly toward the student
responding with appropriate facial expressions
give ample (even uncomfortable) response time
relax when you are watching the student communicate
An active listening response may be to:
acknowledge feelings without engaging in them
paraphrase what the student communicated
ask the student for specific examples
guide students to make appropriate choices
ask questions that will lead the student to her/his own solution
be familiar with difficult situations
8. LISTENING CHALLENGE
OBSERVE EXAMPLE ACTIVIT Y
Break into groups of four; then pair up within your
group
Each team of 2 will create a student tutee vignette
(this can be based on a real experience) to be shared
with the other pair.
Try to include non-verbal cues
With your partner establish a response to the
presented vignette that takes into account the
following Active Listening Techniques:
Respond to feelings (note non-verbal cues)
Listening for total meaning without judgment
Feed-back what you heard to the speaker
10. BLOOM’S TAXONOMY
Bloom's Taxonomy is a classification of learning
objectives using levels of questioning and/or
thinking skills.
Learning at higher levels is dependent on having attained
prerequisite knowledge and skills at lower levels.
Classifications:
Knowledge – observing and recalling
Comprehension – understanding
Application – use of information
Analysis – organization of information
Synthesis – use old info to establish new
Evaluation – discriminate between ideas
11. EFFECTIVE QUESTIONING TECHNIQUES
Use think-pair-share to allow students to
respond to questions cooperatively.
―Unpack student thinking‖ by asking them to
describe how they arrived at an answer.
Promote active listening by asking for
summaries of individual and group responses
to key questions.
Ask students why they hold a particular
position or point of view.
Survey the group (e.g., How many of you
agree?—Thumbs up, thumbs down...)
12. EFFECTIVE QUESTIONING TECHNIQUES
CONT’D
Encourage student-constructed questions.
Emphasize ―why?‖ and ―how?‖ questions.
Use hypothetical thinking: What would happen
if...? What if this had happened?
Employ reversals: What happens if we reverse
the steps?
Use analogies: How is this like _____ ?
Employ completion activities: Before we move
on, what do you anticipate needing to happen
in this series?
13. BLOOM’S TAXONOMY WORKSHEET
In pairs, create sample questions from your
appropriate level on Bloom’s Taxonomy.
Work in a ―real context‖ scenario.
One of you will role-play the student and one will be
the tutor.
Try to use real subject matter content.
Discuss ways you promote collaboration in your
Tutorial Sessions:
What are your best engagement techniques?
How do these activities change by subject matter?
15. SETH GODIN ON TRIBE LEADERSHIP
―Focus on WHO you are leading, not the
mechanics of what you’re building‖
Watch the following video and write down any quotes
that resonate with you.
While watching consider the following questions:
How does this topic relate to ―Tribes‖ at UCF?
How can I apply these principles to my job as a SARC
tutor?

http://www.ted.com/talks/seth_godin_on_the_tribes_we_lead.html

you?
17. COLLABORATION TECHNIQUES &
ACTIVITIES
Be welcoming & personable
Use active listening & probing questions
Promote higher order thinking through group discussions
or debates.
PUT DOWN THE MARKER
Pre-writing and/or Collaborative learning groups:
ask students to spend the first few minutes of their
session writing out what they DO know and what they
need help on or answering a higher-order question. Pair
accordingly, or use those ―in the know‖
What did you describe as your best engagement
techniques?
18. TRY SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT…
Challenge yourself next week to tutor differently.
Track your success on your weekly tutor logs.
Try one of the following:
Use the Socratic Method to turn every answer into a question
Do not use your marker all week
Practice Active Listening: Allow long silences & then work on
repeating back what you ―hear‖ before proceeding:
EXAMPLE: ―What I heard you say is that you are frustrated because you
understand the concept but are having a hard time putting it into practice
when it is taken out of context. Is that what you meant?‖
Put your group into challenge mode: appoint two leaders and
challenge the groups to compete to answer questions collaboratively.
First team to explain the answer to 5 questions correctly gets a high
five.
Write assignment/sample problems on the board and then find an
excuse to walk away for 5 minutes… see what happens.
