Connect, apply, synthesize: Helping students integrate their learning
Monday, Sept. 29 & Monday, Oct. 27, 3:30-4:45 p.m.
Belk Pavilion 201
Integrative learning can happen when students link what they’ve learned in one course to another, or when they bridge theory and practice (connecting their learning from a course to an internship, for instance, or vice versa). While majors and programs have integrative goals and use pedagogies to encourage this kind of learning, research suggests that many students are not as successful as they could be at integrative learning. In this seminar we will read and discuss a few key articles on integrative learning – aiming to connect, apply and synthesize the literature on integrative learning to the way we teach our courses and structure our curricula.
