Allow Students to Author Their Own Learning Path

Giving students a voice in how their learning is structured can make their learning journey more relevant, meaningful and enjoyable. During this session, you’ll hear how student-designed lessons and assessments were successfully implemented in two very different disciplines. Through a series of scaffolded assignments, biology lab students designed their own experiments as the culminating activity in the course. Art students worked in groups to design assignments for classmates and grade peers’ final presentation of the resulting work.
