What is Learning, and How to Facilitate It

March 1, 2024

Teachers teach students not subjects. If teaching is facilitating learning in unique individuals rather than disseminating knowledge to generalized others, then teachers need a functioning theory of learning. Teachers need to have a concept of what it is they are trying to facilitate. This workshop will explore experiential learning theory and its use in college teaching. The theory provides a clear and pragmatic framework for course design as well as class design. In addition, it provides both students and faculty with a tool for their own self-directed learning.

Facilitated by Douglas Robertson, Professor, Educational Policy Studies

Fulfills Certificate Requirement: Syllabus and Course Design or Elective
