Abstract
The NASA CAE presents workshops on teaching Astro 101 classes. They emphasize research based best-practice techniques for interactive engagement. In this local CAE workshop I will spend some time covering the main techniques of interactive engagement as I practice them, and provide some materials to make it easier to adopt the methods in your classroom. Time will be put aside to allow participants to exchange their favorite ideas that improve the teaching of Astro 101.
