This workshop will explore the role of \u201cintellectual friction\u201d in pedagogy, examining how moments of confusion, tension, uncertainty, and effort can serve as catalysts for deeper learning. Participants will consider how to build these moments of friction into their own courses in ways that are supportive and even fun, as well as help students develop habits of mind associated with expert thinking.<\/p>\n<h2>Pedagogy Matters 3:<br \/>\nThe Assignment Garage: Taking a Fresh Look Under the Hood<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> Wednesday, April 15, 2026 | 11:00-12:00<\/li>\n<li><strong>Where:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/22498578288715?p=eGifSaIouXzI73pDrq\">Online via Teams<\/a> (Click to join)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In this hands-on workshop, faculty are invited to bring an existing assignment from one of their courses and \u201cput it up on the lift\u201d in the CTL\u2019s Assignment Garage. Through a series of guided design stations, participants will consider how to incorporate elements such as threshold concepts, professional noticing, creative constraints, and reflection into their assignments. The goal is to leave with a revised learning experience that helps students move beyond completing tasks to practicing the kinds of judgment, decision-making, and problem-solving that characterize expert work in the field.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.marshall.edu\/ctl\/teaching\/faculty-development\/pedagogy-of-teaching-and-learning\/pedagogy-matters\/historicpmworkshops\">Previous Pedagogy Matters topics<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Questions?
