Synopsis "Creating Significant Learning Experiences: An Integrated Approach To Designing College Courses, Revised And Updated"

Institutional Support For Better Teaching And Learning Is A National Issue. Since The Original Publication Of L. Dee Finks Bestselling Volume On The Topic, Higher Education Has Continued To Move In Two Opposite Directions: More And More Institutions Encourage Their Faculty To Spend More Time On Research, Grants, And Publications, Giving Them Less Opportunity To Learn About Teaching, And More National Organizations, Including Accreditation Agencies, Emphasize The Need For Greater Attention To The Quality Of Teaching And Learning And Educational Programs. In This Revised And Updated Edition, Fink Poses A Fundamental Question For All Teachers: How Can I Create Courses That Will Provide Significant Learning Experiences For My Students? In The Process Of Addressing This Question, The Author Urges Teachers To Shift From A Content - Centered Approach To A Learning - Centered Approach That Asks: What Kinds Of Learning Will Be Significant For Students, And How Can I Create A Course That Will Result In That Kind Of Learning? Fink Provides Several Conceptual And Procedural Tools That Will Be Invaluable For All Teachers When Designing Instruction. They Take Important Existing Ideas In The Literature On College Teaching (Active Learning, Educative Assessment), Add Some New Ideas (A Taxonomy Of Significant Learning, The Concept Of A Teaching Strategy), And Show How To Systematically Combine These In A Way That Results In Powerful Learning Experiences For Students. Acquiring A Deeper Understanding Of The Design Process Will Empower Teachers To Creatively Design Courses For Significant Learning In A Variety Of Situations. In Addition To Being Thoroughly Updated, This Edition Includes More Examples From Online Teaching; Discussion Of New Research On How People Learn, Active Learning, Student Engagement, And The Effectiveness Of Finks Model; And An Increased Focus On The Impact Of Student Engagement On Student Learning. Fink Explores The Changes In Higher Education Nationally And Internationally Since The Publication Of The Previous Edition, Includes Additional Procedures For Integrating Ones Course, And Adds Strategies For Dealing With Student Resistance To Innovative Teaching
