The New Traditions project offers workshops to promote the benefits of active learning and to introduce instructors to its implementation.

(chart - Get Involved with NT!) The first of these workshops was held last summer for faculty from two year colleges. Another was held in mid-October for teams of faculty from colleges and universities.

We invite you to beta-test New Traditions innovations and adapt them for use in your own environment. It is not necessary to throw out everything you are familiar with. Changes can and should be made incrementally. Active learning is not a one-size-fits-all pedagogy.
