Interestingly the Journal Clubs are a great way to critically engage with the published literature and keep abreast with the forefront of fast-moving disciplines. When done within the scientific community, they require all to come to the session having read the article and prepared to ask questions, show scepticism, share knowledge and critically analyse claims made by the authors. Look back at this chapter in the “100 Ideas for Active Learning” book, where Dr Sophie Rutschmann and Dr Malgorzata Trela presents an engaging method for learning engagement in a structured format.
Share with us by leaving your comments on how this framework helps the learners focus on one task at a time and this can help facilitate active participation and channel students’ approach to innovation, enhancing the quality of the work they produce. Have you used a similar method of co-creating the curriculum with students? How did it go?
