Flex Day -
March 3, 2011 at Chabot College
Discipline Work Session
1:15 - 2:45
Context For Discussion
How can you incorporate cognitive teaching and learning
techniques into those areas of your course(s) in which assessments
reveal a need to enhance student achievement?
Using insights gained from:
- the guest speaker
- your conversations about examples of cognitive teaching
techniques
- the results of your SLO assessments (where available)
discuss how specific areas/topics that are working well could be
expanded as well as potential changes to the course curriculum,
activities, and pedagogical practices that you would like to
implement.
At the end of the session, please record the plans you have developed
for methods that will enhance student learning in the
online form
provided. (This "closing-the-loop" form will allow us to
document our discussions and to provide evidence of progress on
Accreditation Recommendation #1.)
We hope your discussions have been fruitful,
valuable, and informative for your teaching. Please bring
questions that have arisen, topics on which you would like further
clarification, and your personal reflections on the theories
discussed to the Question & Answer Session with Dr. Zull this
afternoon: 3:00 in the Performing Arts Center.
