Learning-centered teaching strategies focus on instructors as facilitators of learning, rather than providers of knowledge. During this interactive, 90-minute workshop, participants will understand key research findings related to learning processes and their implications for classroom instruction; define active learning, collaborative learning, and inquiry-based learning; and be able to describe classroom learning activities for each pedagogical approach and apply understanding of learning processes and forms of learning-centered teaching to course design.
