What would learning look like if we radically re-thought its structures and interpersonal dynamics? The research into active learning shows that students benefit from being active participants and learn more when they are able to have agency in the design of their learning. Look back at this chapter in the “100 Ideas for Active Learning” book, where Tab Betts presents an engaging method for learning engagement in a structured format.
Share with us by leaving your comments on how this framework helps the learners focus on one task at a time and this can help facilitate active participation and channel students’ approach to innovation, enhancing the quality of the work they produce. Have you used a similar method of co-creating the curriculum with students? How did it go?
