There are a lot of prevalent ideas out there about how we learn, but are they all true? In this workshop, we will identify some popular ideas and assumptions and sort out which are rooted in the science of learning and which are not. Participants will come away with clarity about popular ideas, along with practical, evidence-based strategies to enhance their students' learning. This workshop is for new faculty or any educator who would like additional clarification and inspiration for student-centered teaching practices.

Presented by Jennifer Jordan-Wong, M.S., ASC Learning Specialist

Presented in collaboration with the Office of Educational Improvement and Innovation.
