Providing Opportunities for Learners to Demonstrate their Learning in ways that Engage them in the Process

Providing Opportunities for Learners to Demonstrate their Learning in ways that Engage them in the Process


To engage learners in their educational process, it can be helpful to ‘think like the learner’ when designing the course and course resources. In this session, participants will learn how concepts focused on engaging learners and gleaned from literature and educational design experts have been applied to a natural science-focused course, and how the course has been adapted and modified with learner feedback. From the organization of the Carmen course site to the design of assessments that demonstrate student learning and attainment of the course learning outcomes, the components of the course will be shared – mistakes and successes will be discussed and transferability to other applications will be explored.
