How can "low-tech” efforts increase student engagement and possibly transform students' educational experience and lives?
Stephen Brookfield is a professor at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota. He is a leading adult educator who has contributed greatly to the field. Critical thinking is at the center of Brookfield’s work and he asserts the Critical Incident Questionnaire (CIQ) is a great way to engage students and faculty in a cooperative learning environment. He claims out of all the strategies that he used as an educator, the CIQ is one of the most powerful because it allows students to have a voice.
