EDUC 207 Teaching & Facilitating Learning–Level 1

3 CR

As an introduction to vocational teaching, college instructors begin or expand their training as a skilled educator. Instructor-learners learn about “successful beginnings,” being a positive role model, and developing effective lessons based on identified student learning outcomes and competencies. New instructor-learners practice implementing a variety of instructional strategies and student assessments and learn ways to evaluate the progress of diverse learners to meet course objectives. Focus is on four primary modes of instruction: lecture, discussion, demonstration, small group work, and ways in which instructors act as facilitators of learning in their classrooms.
