Course description
Educators have a huge responsibility in ensuring that our students are learning. As a result, we often place ourselves at the forefront of learning experiences, coordinating and giving our learners as much knowledge as possible. This approach results in students taking more passive roles in their learning process when it should ultimately center on and belong to them. In this course, participants will reflect on the importance of student-centered learning and how educators can help facilitate learners in becoming the creators and co-creators in their learning experiences. Participants will explore the value of active engagement and how prioritizing learning ownership of the learning process promotes increased success.
