Multisensory Learning in Higher Education: A Hands-on Workshop Designed to Infuse Your Courses with the Five Senses In-Person
See It, Hear It, Touch It, Smell It, Taste It—Teach It! Unlock the power of multisensory learning and discover how engaging multiple senses can transform your teaching and captivate your students like never before.
In this workshop, you will be immersed in thought-provoking mini-lessons in history, science, math, English, and business. In science, for example, you will determine the concentration of an unknown acid using the smell of garlic powder as an olfactory indicator. In math, you will use hands-on manipulatives to work with numbers that are otherwise two-dimensional figures on paper. Creative teaching lessons like this provided unique opportunities for our students to experience innovative design with accessible components for all learners. After we experience multisensory learning through mini-lessons, we will brainstorm lesson plans that incorporate multiple senses in a variety of content areas. By the end of this workshop, you will have at least one new idea on how to add multisensory components to engage your students. This workshop is for any educator looking for creative and innovative teaching methods and pedagogy in the classroom with multisensory elements.
