Subject: [tips] Looking for help with developing several classes
I am looking to develop the following courses and would appreciate hearing
from those of you who have such courses (backchannel is fine), even if you
don't teach it, perhaps you can direct me to your catalogue or forward
this to
the appropriate person who does teach the course for a reply. A catalogue
description, syllabus, or any other information would be helpful.
(1) Learning to learn. Anything in the lines of teaching students good
learning
techniques, especially for those who might be coming into college
underprepared to undertake college level learning.
Annette: I taught a similar course and I used a text titled THE MASTER
STUDENT.It is designed for your
targeted students.It has lots of experiential learning stuff and ideal for
adults coming to college for the first time.
You may want to adopt this philosophy of mine-tell stdents that they should
study for life and not for tests and that they should enter to learn but
depart to serve.
