511 CANCELED Foundations in the Design and Teaching of Geoscience Courses Using Active Learning Strategies.
This short course provides an opportunity for faculty to develop a strong foundation in course design principles and research-based instructional strategies. These principles and strategies characterize high-impact active-learning classrooms. Although intended primarily for post-secondary geoscience faculty, all are welcome. By the end of this short course, participants should be able to (1) apply course design principles to a course of their choosing, (2) discern in which contexts different instructional strategies are most impactful and why, and (3) call on members of this learning community for support in ongoing course development and teaching efforts. This short course is an intensive professional development experience for STEM educators who have taught for many years and are looking for refresher or something new, who are in the early years of their teaching career and want a sharply tuned pedagogical toolkit, or who might be aspiring to be a future STEM educator. Participants who complete this short course will receive a certificate of completion, which may be valuable for their annual merit reviews, promotion cases, and/or tenure cases.
