Are your students sometimes mystified by their grades, or perhaps lacking motivation to take ownership of their learning? Have you ever wanted to help your students become more effective learners? Today’s students come to college with widely varying academic skills, unaware of the study skills needed to meet college-level expectations for learning.

Metacognition is the practice of “thinking about thinking”: the awareness and ability of learners to identify their cognitive processes and make changes to their learning behaviors (Lovett, 2008). Promoting metacognition can increase students' understanding of how learning works, teaching students how to understand what caused their successes or failures and direct their own learning (Brownlee, Purdie, & Boulton-Lewis, 2001).

This webinar will go beyond the basics of metacognition and explore how to use metacognitive techniques to help students monitor and regulate their own learning, providing you with concrete strategies and adaptive instructional materials for incorporating into your course. Register

Think back to the most influential teacher or professor you have ever had. Chances are, what you remember most is not their PowerPoint slides, lecture notes, or exam questions. You remember how they made you feel, the experiences they created, the questions they challenged you to answer, and the moments that transformed information into understanding. Why do some of these learning experiences stay with us for years while others are forgotten by the end of the semester? The answer may lie not in what students hear, but in what they do. Experiential Learning Theory suggests that meaningful learning occurs when students actively engage with ideas through experience, reflection, and application. Yet many instructors struggle with how to move beyond traditional lectures without sacrificing course content or rigor. The good news is that experiential learning does not require a complete course redesign. Small, intentional changes can create opportunities for deeper engagement, critical thinking, and lasting learning.

In this interactive workshop, participants will use an experiential learning framework, the Design Challenge, to redesign a component of their course to include an experiential learning element. Through reflection, hands-on activities, and peer discussion of practical implementation for their discipline and instructional modality, attendees will leave with evidence-based approaches for creating learning experiences that students remember long after the course has ended.

This workshop is an elective session for a certificate of completion in Integrative and Experiential Learning.  Register
