QEP: Age Really is Just a Number, Right?: Teaching That Reaches Traditionalists, Millennials, and Everyone in Between
Hours: 1.25
| Today's college rosters are made up of four distinct generations, and you have members of each one in your next class meeting. Scary, huh? Relax! You can make it into a thing of beauty. While one group wants to take its time and believes in the philosophy of dont rush things, members of another generation are staring you in the face wanting the information as fast as possible, which means they wanted it delivered to their iPhones yesterday. How do you juggle the two and everything in between
while making class meaningful for everyone? Join this interactive session to explore this history‐making phenomenon, the dos and donts of teaching to everyone, and strategies for reducing the generational gaps in the classroom.
This workshop is part of ACC's QEP and is offered as an annual speaker series to enhance faculty skills. This year's symposium is brought to ACC by Cengage Learning, Faculty Development and the QEP Leadership Team.
The workshop presenter, Clayton Austin, has masters degree in Curriculum and Instructionfrom the University of North Florida, where he found his niche in educational psychology and received the prestigious J. Hillis Miller Presidential Fellowship from the University of Florida to pursue a doctoral degree in this field. |
