American Classical League Institute 2024

Come get your game on Certamen style! In this session, you will learn how to craft and incorporate quiz-bowl style questions into your classroom as formative assessments, and pre-summative assessment review. You will also learn how to involve your students -- taking the load off your shoulders -- in the process of writing fun and varied questions based on your specific text or learning approach; building critical thinking skills and modeling respectful competition norms will help foster a supportive and inclusive classroom environment. We will end the session with a full-group competition showcasing an online buzzer system (accessed via phone or laptop) that you can use in your classroom.
