STRATEGIES TO ENHANACE LEARNING OF FACULTY AND

STUDENTS

THANK YOU

We would like to express our gratitude to the Faculty Center for Teaching for awarding us a “Funding Innovations in Teaching (FIT)” Grant. This grant allowed us to attend the 2015 Athletic Trainers’ Education Conference held in Dallas, Texas. This meeting is held every other year and focuses on Athletic Training Education.

FACULTY IDEAS

Near PeerHave faculty at various stages of the tenure

and promotion process meet once or twice during the semester (monthly)for assistance and guidance (new, 3 years in, newly tenured or promoted)

Can discuss items that arise and procedural items in the tenure and promotion process.

FACULTY IDEAS

Writing Groups (Accountability)Arrange for a group of people from different

disciplines to meet at a regularly (once a week) scheduled time to work on their own individual writing (research, grants, proposals) and to have the ability to ask others for help

Causes YOU to think about your own writing and to continue writing. You think about your writing as you are preparing to go to your meeting

FLIPPING THE CLASSROOM

Before Class

Video Lecture

“Ticket in”

During Class

Project based learning

Collaborative group projects

Practical tasks

Student created content

Teacher circulation

Assessment with the Flipped Classroom

Formative Monitors student learning

Identifies student strengths and weaknesses Allows faculty to address problems immediately

Summative Evaluates student learning

Benefits of the Flipped Classroom

Helps eliminate passiveness

Students can learn at their own pace Re-listen to lectures

Teachers available for immediate help with assignments

Helps decrease exam study time with continual prep

Common Challenges of the Flip

Access to technology

Student is unable to ask questions during lecture

Student buy-in More “homework” Accountability = “Ticket in”

Getting started Start with one topic and proceed from there

CONCEPT MAPPING

BENEFITS OF CONCEPT MAPPING Helping students brainstorm and generate new ideas Encouraging students to discover new concepts and the

propositions that connect them Allowing students to more clearly communicate ideas,

thoughts and information Helping students integrate new concepts with older

concepts Enabling students to gain enhanced knowledge of any topic

and evaluate the information “Unpacking” students’ brains

May want to use “Near Peer” ideas in courses including students at different levels in courses

Draws connections
