Playful Pedagogies – Using Games and Creative Assignments to Engage Students

Series:
  • Contract Faculty Community of Practice

Let’s reimagine learning through creativity and play! This workshop invites contract faculty to explore how games and imaginative assignments can foster deeper engagement and critical thinking. Drawing from examples in literature and cultural studies, we will also look at how science-based disciplines can benefit from playful approaches—such as simulations, role-playing, and collaborative problem-solving. You’ll leave with adaptable strategies and inspiration to design assignments that spark curiosity while honoring your pedagogical values and workload realities.
