2022 Teaching & Assessment Symposium

Implementing Principles of Smart Teaching: Assessment of their Effectiveness with Undergraduates in CSD

Location

University Center

Description

In response to the changing face of education and a desire to continue to improve teaching effectiveness to meet the needs of students, specific smart teaching principles were applied in two upper-level undergraduate courses. To evaluate changes in student-perceived skills as learners, survey based data was collected at the beginning and end of each semester across multiple semesters (N = 75+). Student perceptions of themselves as learners changed, and students found the techniques effective and easy to use. Students reported applying strategies learned to other courses. Review of exams and paper grades showed improved performance following implementation of teaching strategies.
