Can’T We All Just Get Along? Debate As A Tool To Promote And Assess Collaboration And Critical Thinking, Megan Flocken

Colloquiums

In this colloquium, we explore how structured debates offer an engaging and student-centered tool for assessing student achievement of learning objectives related to analysis, evaluation, communication, and collaboration. By engaging students in real-time, evidence-based argumentation, faculty can gain insight into the students’ ability to think critically, i.e., synthesize information, consider other points of view, judge arguments, and work collaboratively. I will provide attendees with practical strategies for integrating debate into their own classrooms as an effective assessment tool.

So You Want To Support Open Education Resources?, Jackson Harper

Librarian Posters and Presentations

Open education resources (OER) are learning materials that are free for users to utilize and share. They can take many forms-- learning modules, video lectures, etc.-- but they are most commonly known as free online textbooks. In this form, they are a growing presence on course syllabi, but what exactly are these things that faculty are integrating into their courses? Where do they come from? How do they help students? In the presentation, attendees will learn the fundamentals of OER and the reasons instructors choose to adopt them.

Empowering Teaching Excellence Conference

Glen L. Sherman, in his article on Transformative Learning and Well-Being for Emerging Adults in Higher Education, discusses the role of "well-being" and how "transformative education" can bring students to "holistic self-knowledge" (Sherman, G. L. (2020). Transformative Learning and Well-Being for Emerging Adults in Higher Education. Journal of Transformative Education, 19(1), 29-49. https://doi.org/10.1177/1541344620935623). I will showcase how a student-created, student-centered, and student-selected experience can bring self-clarification through service-learning activities.

Reserve Time For Your Content: Building Habits Of Mind By Embedding Time Management And Planning In Existing Course Materials, Jennifer Willmore

Empowering Teaching Excellence Conference

When college students are proficient in time management, planning and sequencing skills, instructors can focus more on delivering course content rather than on behavioral skills training. By embedding application of these skills in existing syllabi, assignments, and assessments, educators can dedicate class time and office hours to engaging discussions, hands-on activities, and critical analysis, enriching the overall learning experience for both students and instructors. Because these are the reasons most instructors went into education, we want to start a conversation on how we can reserve an instructor's time and energy for acts of inquiry and creativity. This interactive session will …
