Abstract

Many educators encounter challenges in maintaining student engagement, particularly during a student’s college education, when burnout can become prevalent. Traditional lecture formats deliver information one way, which does not adequately address diverse learning styles. Active learning, however, can create a two-way communication approach where students are actively involved in their education (Gleason et al., 2011). This teaching method promotes accountability among students, encouraging them to take more responsibility for their academics (National Institute of Education, 1984). The presentation will focus on three activities including creating a homemade phantom, discussing relay races but adding a unique twist, and a skit using interesting props to engage student participation. For each activity, a description will be provided, with the type of active learning method, the educational outcomes, and student feedback. Brief examples of additional activities will address obstacles that educators may encounter. By implementing these activities, educators can help students develop many skills such as critical thinking. These various skills encourage lifelong learning and create personal and intellectual development.
