 Abstract:\n
 Most of us know 
 that hands-on learning can be valuable. But 
 how can we integrate hands-on experiences with 
 objects outside of very small classes or 
 laboratory settings? In this session of STEM 
 Teaching Essentials, we model teaching with objects 
 by demonstrating two examples that integrate 
 hands-on learning in a lecture or seminar 
 setting. We provide tips and best practices 
 for four stages of thinking about these activities: 
 (1) aligning hands-on activities with 
 course goals, (2) preparing the materials 
 prior to class, (3) how to manage the classroom 
 when you inject material engagement into it, 
 and (4) how to evaluate the success of your 
 hands-on activity.\n
