Impacting Active Learning through Metacognition

Metacognition, the awareness of one's own thought processes, can play a powerful role in

what and how we learn. This course will discuss metacognitive awareness and how it can

impact learning. Participants will examine how metacognitive strategies can be integrated

into active learning activities to support student learning. Participants will also apply

metacognitive principles to their own teaching practice.

Project-based Learning

In project-based learning, students answer a complex, open-ended question or solve an

authentic problem through a collaborative process of investigation. Unlike traditional

instruction where students are presented with knowledge and given an opportunity to apply

that knowledge, project-based learning starts with the end in mind--a product that requires

the learning of essential content and skills. In this workshop, faculty will be introduced to

the seven characteristics of project-based learning, as well as techniques for managing a

project-based learning experience in one's classroom. Workshop participants will draft a

driving-question and will begin developing ideas for project-based learning experiences in

their disciplines.
