Creating Student Responsibility
for Deeper Learning: Wrap Up & Next Steps
35 faculty, staff, and graduate teaching assistants gathered on Wed,
June 16 for the TENN TLC and OIT Innovative Technology Consulting
co-sponsored workshop on Creating Student Responsibility for Deeper
Learning. Participants engaged in discussion and activities focused on
creating opportunities for students to be responsible using technology
and active learning techniques.
They enjoyed hearing from colleagues about what works for them, sharing
their experiences with each other, and reflecting on their own course
designs.
