Students discuss research on a variety of evidence-based, inclusive, equitable, learner-centered teaching strategies, including problem-based learning, discussion, interactive lecture, and other innovative approaches, as well as a variety of techniques for assessing learning, and will then apply this knowledge to designing a course and lesson plan using the backward design model. This course also includes an applied component in which enables the student to design, deliver, and assess a short online lesson for the class on a topic related to teaching methodology, design, and/or assessment.
