Critical Teaching Behaviors
What does “good teaching” mean, and what does it look like? Perhaps you have grappled with this question, either to grow your teaching effectiveness or to assess the teaching of others. This book club is for you!
Align components of learning experiences to defined outcomes
Instructors who align components of learning experiences start with clearly defined learning outcomes. Teaching and learning activities, assessment tasks, and feedback build on each other to support student progress towards these outcomes.
In this session, we will discuss:
- Aligning course outcomes to program
- Defining actionable, learner centered outcomes
- Aligning content, assessments and activities with outcomes
- Stating course module, lesson, and/or assignment at each stage of learning
- Emphasizing connections
- Presenting content and activities at multiple levels of engagement and challenge
Join us to learn observable behaviors and strategies to identify concrete areas of strengths and need for improvement in course delivery and design.
