Reflection On Effective Teaching Practice, Cohort B Fall 2019-Spring 2020, Q2s, Trc, Acue Training, Jacqueline Romano
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
The contexts of the first reflections focus on what I did in preparation for “the first day of class”, “planning for effective lessons”, “delivering an effective lecture, and the last reflection focuses on the implementation of virtual class due to COVID-19 transition “setting learning objectives”. For the most part, the implementation of techniques was geared for a face-to-face classroom setting. However, the transition from F2F format to online in such a short amount of time was challenging as more time for preparation was what I needed. However, this interruption to my F2F classes was an opportunity to test my skills …
Designing And Revising A Course Using Evidence-Based Teaching (Ebt) In Higher Education, Becky Sumbera
Designing And Revising A Course Using Evidence-Based Teaching (Ebt) In Higher Education, Becky Sumbera
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
This is a Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy submission project.
During a year-long New Faculty Learning Community experience, the writer looked at evidence-based teaching (EBT) through an Action Research model to re-structure a Higher Education course to increase students’ ability to turn theory into successful professional practices through active learning. After analyzing the threshold concepts for an Educational Administration Credential course, the following needs were found: (1) to deepen administrator candidates’ problem-solving skills through discussion-based learning and reflection; (2) to deepen administrator candidates’ skills in equity-based decision-making through relevant case studies; and (3) to apply inquiry-based structure to model and measure the …
Course Syllabus For English 1120 - Speculative Fiction, Chad Luck
Course Syllabus For English 1120 - Speculative Fiction, Chad Luck
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
This document contains a syllabus for a new version of the large-lecture course English 1120: Speculative Fiction. This version of the class focuses on horror fiction, in particular, and structures the course according to a series of discursive contexts crucial to that genre. So, the course is organized around five thematic units including: psychology, religion, gender, race, and science. Each of these units presents key texts in that given area and asks students to think critically about the relationship of fiction to that particular cultural context. The course, in general, cultivates in students the ability to analyze cultural objects—in this …

Teaching And Testing Textual Analysis In Reacting To The Past: Thucydides And Jigsaw Method Discussion, Cary Barber
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
The activity this work presents is designed to both strengthen and evaluate students’ ability to think critically about ancient texts within a Reacting to the Past gaming environment (specifically in the game ‘The Threshold of Democracy: Athens in 403 B.C.’). The activity is part of a preliminary set of assignments meant to improve students’ sense of the game’s historical, social, political, economic, and religious context. Moreover, the activity helps to ensure that students can incorporate texts appropriately into speeches, writings, and general gameplay.
Using the Jigsaw Method of discussion, I organize students into ‘numbered’ (I, II, III, etc.) groups of …

Transcending Diversity: Redefining Critical Pedagogies To Enable Students As Creators Of Knowledge, Hareem Khan
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
While adhering to the course learning objectives, the final project for my Ethnic Studies 100: Race and Ethnicity in America course has transformed into an opportunity for students to grapple with the pandemic through the critical lens they build on this quarter. It asks them to center their myriad experiences as CSUSB students and use them as guides to engage with their choice of an academic text from the course. Ethnic Studies, a discipline that emerged out of political movements that addressed systemic racism at the level of higher education, requires us to transcend the banking models of education that …
Aligning Learning Outcomes With Assignments In A Project-Based Journalism Class, Mariam Betlemidze
Aligning Learning Outcomes With Assignments In A Project-Based Journalism Class, Mariam Betlemidze
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
One of the challenges of working on course learning outcomes is ensuring that they capture everything that course teaches without coming across as cumbersome or overwhelming. One of the best ways to mitigate this challenge is the alignment of course learning outcomes with assignments and cognitive levels of learning. I have revised my Writing for the Media syllabus to demonstrate one of the effective ways for fine-tuning entry-level journalism class.
Electronic Portfolios As Assessment Tied To Course Outcomes, Todd Jennings
Electronic Portfolios As Assessment Tied To Course Outcomes, Todd Jennings
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
ePortfolios, and portfolios in general, are typically used to collect student work across time to show evidence of learning and development, enabling students to reflect upon and demonstrate their unique understandings and mastery of concepts. However, besides being useful longitudinally, they can also prove valuable as summative assessment tools within quarter or semester long courses. As an alternative to traditional examinations that require students to conform their learning/memorization to information pre-selected by instructors, ePortfolios allow students to show what they have learned in highly individualized ways that are applied to their unique lives and social contexts. In the example presented …
When Knowledge Is Not Enough: Racial Ignorance And Understanding, Eric Bayruns García
When Knowledge Is Not Enough: Racial Ignorance And Understanding, Eric Bayruns García
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
I argue that merely causing individuals to have knowledge of racial injustice and race relations in society is insufficient to prevent them from coming to hold false racist beliefs. I also argue that causing individuals to have understanding of racial injustice and race relations is sufficient to prevent individuals from coming to hold false racist beliefs. I suggest that if these two claims are correct, then educators should compose curricula such that they engender deep understanding of racial injustice and race relations in students.
I suggest curricula should include Charles Mills’ classic book The Racial Contract because this book involves …

Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
In the new, transformed Biology BS program for conversion from quarter to semester, multiple faculty will teach varied courses under the “Cell and Molecular” requirement for our program. Our old program required multiple core courses, leading to bottlenecks as students could not get seats in needed classes. We have designed our new program to provide students with options under core categories, providing students more flexibility which should improve time to graduation. Students must take at least ONE of the courses, although students who chose to focus on Cell and Molecular Biology should be able to learn new material in ALL …

Increasing Interactivity In Archaeology Courses At The Undergraduate And Graduate Levels, Guy Hepp
Increasing Interactivity In Archaeology Courses At The Undergraduate And Graduate Levels, Guy Hepp
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
This project included revisions to ANTH 140: World Civilizations I, the Rise of Civilization and ANTH 616: History and Theory of Archaeology. For ANTH 140, the required readings, lecture content, group activities, and assessment strategies were all significantly changed or completely replaced. For ANTH 616, subtle changes were made to reading response, group discussion, and online group discussion strategies. Both course revisions resulted in improved classroom atmospheres. This was especially the case for ANTH 140, where average and median grades improved and standard deviations in grades decreased. Improvements to ANTH 616, a small seminar course, were too affected by outliers …
Project Based Learning: Applying Pbl In A Social Theory Course, Karen Robinson
Project Based Learning: Applying Pbl In A Social Theory Course, Karen Robinson
Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy
This course outline provides a plan for implementing Project Based Learning in a Social Theory course for sociology majors. SOC 311 (SOC 3110) is a required course for sociology majors that introduces students to sociological theory. Most students do not like this course because sociological theory is perceived to be very dry, irrelevant to their lives, and difficult to apply. The typical final project for sociological theory courses involves a paper comparing theorists and applying to a social issue. Instead, I want to incorporate a semester long project that will result in a podcast or a short documentary in which …
