All too often, professors and academics receive limited training in how to actually teach their materials. Moreover, millennials and Gen Z students are increasing disengaged from college classes that do not offer a more diversified educational approach. Often times, they come ill-prepared for college level classes. While the lecture format has been adequate at best, you can effectively recalibrate your classes and creatively integrate pedagogical strategies that foster greater understanding and impact.

This webinar will showcase how to:

  • Design dynamic syllabi and lessons that are student-centered and inclusive
  • Differentiate and integrate various textual sources to support different types of learners (i.e. visual, tactile, etc.)
  • Make modifications for students with special needs
  • Scaffold your lessons and incorporate simple yet effective graphic organizers
  • Incorporate better yet simple assessments that build upon your learning goals
  • Include higher level questions and when to pose them
  • Build academic language for struggling students
  • Creatively incorporate impactful group work activities to encourage peer to peer learning

This 75 minute seminar includes a Q&A and discussion of strategic problem solving and curriculum development "how to’s".
