Talking Teaching: Quizizz for Engagement and Retention

Friday, March 15, 2024  |  12-1 pm  |  Teams  | Discussion Leader: Christina Talley, Asst. Prof. of Biology

At this month’s Talking Teaching gathering, Christina Talley will lead a discussion about how to use Quizizz (a platform in which you can create and customize quizzes, activities, lessons, and homework) to help increase students’ retention and engagement.

Talking Teaching gatherings provide an opportunity for faculty to discuss teaching and learning with their colleagues in a small and relatively informal setting. Each session will explore a specific topic, element, or dimension of teaching and learning. No advance preparation required. Talking teaching sessions will be held on Fridays from 12-1pm every four weeks in Spring 2024 (1/19, 2/16, 3/15, & 4/12). Bring your lunch and join us in Teams for a hearty discussion!
