Helping Students Value Challenge and Hard Work

Hours: 1

In postsecondary classrooms, it’s important to help students move beyond the “empty vessel” model of learning to a model that encompasses self-directed, strategic learning. Sometimes it's difficult for students to value challenges and hard work as components of the learning process because they do not understand how to move towards being an engaged participant in their own learning. Using classroom examples, this webinar shares ways to increase student engagement in the learning process. Webinar participants explore concepts related to learning improvement, analyze and synthesize the information presented in order to integrate “learning how to learn” content into their teaching practices, and evaluate various “learning how to learn” opportunities that can be used in their classrooms to improve learning and student performance. The webinar facilitator has taught in postsecondary education for 12 years, teaching developmental reading, writing, and freshman composition. Her research interests focus on improving the academic success of underprepared students.
