Themed Conversation Series: Encouraging Student Attendance and Engagement in Face to Face Classes

The Themed Conversation Series is a series of noon-hour discussions, hosted by the Teaching Academy once a month, which explore a range of topics related to teaching in higher education. These conversations give participants an opportunity to share experiences, explore ideas, and dialogue with peers about a variety of teaching issues.

This themed conversation will focus on the question of how to ensure student attendance. How might instructors maximize student attendance in their courses? Explore some options and ideas that move beyond the notion of compulsory attendance to consider how you might encourage students’ regular participation in class.
