Join us for an introductory, asynchronous crash course in the cognitive theories underlying learning and memory. Discover how you can leverage these theories to encourage deep, meaningful, long-lasting learning for your students.

In this hands-on, collaborative workshop, participants will learn about the backwards design theory of lesson planning and will have the opportunity to collaboratively review and discuss a sample STEM or sample Humanities lesson plan to reflect on the features of effective lesson plans. Instructors will practice generating a clear learning outcome, assessment, and class activity based on their current teaching appointment and with their current students in mind. Participants will leave the session with an outline that may serve as the foundation for a lesson plan they will use during the semester.
