IU has created online modules to help implement brain-based, learner-centered teaching strategies in your courses to maximize student success. This cohort will learn more about Active Learning in all teaching modalities. We will meet for four one-hour sessions on Zoom to discuss what we learned during the modules: 12-12:45 pm on 10/2, 10/23, 11/13, and 12/4.
After completing these modules, you will be able to:
- Select and implement teaching strategies for helping students rehearse, elaborate, and organize information
- Model, monitor, and assess note-taking, reading, and information literacy strategies that support the learning process
- Describe the importance and components of active learning
- Compare and contrast approaches and resources to create active learning in your course design
- Customize high-impact practices to your course
- Develop an effective, long-term, collaborative learning assignment that helps student groups develop accountability, increase productivity, and work together as a team
