Great day for newbies like me yesterday. Ready for a full day of entrepeneurship talks! #gcec19 @TCDTangent
At the GCEC last week, a presenter said stop saying “meet the students where they are.” Yesterday, a colleague said the same thing. “We should set [realistic college] expectations and help students get there.” @AHAhistorians #GCEC19
AHA’s Jim Grossman’s multitasking at the Gardner Institute’s Gateway Course Experience conference @AHAhistorians #GCEC19
Great to connect with other History faculty working on a common goal. UHD History faculty Nancy Lopez with colleagues from Roosevelt University, Sandra Frink, Margie Rung, and Chris Chulos @RooseveltUCAS @uhdowntown @AHAhistorians #GCEC19
Tony Holland does not disappoint. Five high-impact strategies in course redesign. If your goal is student success, they need to feel connected and cared for in the learning environment. #GCEC19
Opening the redesign window for gen chem: "I knew on some level that I shouldn't be lecturing at my class, but if I moved my lectures online, what would I do in class?" #GCEC19 #ChemChat #ActiveLearning
For those in the #GCEC19 "5 Go to Strategies" session, Here's a link to an article about Stoplight Quizzes: https://t.co/20hTn6Cvb0. (Authored by the fantastic @ProfKKloepper!)
At the end of another informative day of #GCEC19 with @RooseveltUCAS colleagues Margie Rung and Sandra Frink and our new project partners from University of Houston-Downtown Gene Preuss and Nancy Lopez.
Busy, productive day today. #G2C #GCEC19 #HIST2111 #USHistory #HigherEducation #highered #inclusion #inclusivity #teaching #augustauniversity #gardnerinstitute
@bwuetherick @katarina12314 Our teaching centre developed a couple of Tip Sheets to guide/enhance cultures of teaching, informed by @katarina12314 & Roxa: https://t.co/YVE6nLew1Y
Gateway Lessons Learned ... a panel from University of West Georgia #GCEC19
M Williamson: How do we convince our students that we are their advocate not their biggest obstacle? She starts with a letter to each stu on who she is, what she expects of them, & that she knows they will succeed if they work purposefully and persist through struggle #gcec19
M Williamson: To build rapport (aka trust) with students (the first step to supporting students to develop efficacy), demonstrate that you treat students fairly and that you care about their success. Rapport is a habit that can be developed. #gcec19
M Williamson: Efficacy interventions in her large online gateway psychology course has consistently produced twice the rate of student success as in prior versions of this course or in comparable other courses at the same institution. Wow. #gcec19
M Williamson: In STEM courses, efficacy is more predictive of student success than intelligence. We can help students help develop a sense of efficacy by developing rapport & mentoring environment. Efficacy=ability/skill to produce a desired result in a specific context. #gcec19
Gateway courses are a powerful opportunity to help students learn to persist through challenge and to turn struggle/failure into progress. That might be even more important than disciplinary content/skills in these courses, says M Williamson. #GCEC19
M Williamson: Gateway course instructors are often a student's first experience with serious academic struggle or even failure. We need to prepare stu for that experience bc they may not have experience with academic challenge (although they have struggled in other ways) #gcec19
Transfer. We hope students knowledge production in our classes transfer to others...but do we talk about this transfer?
I do. A LOT.
If we are transparent about transfer than students may have a better chance at it happening
#gcec19
So we are talking about valuing non academic literacies as a pathway for students to enter into academic literacies and find their voices there too. Validating prior knowledge. Validating experience. Yup. #gcec19
If you are a faculty member or instructor of college students, I'd recommend following the #gcec19 backchannel!
