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
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
