ATW: How We Learn

Recent developments in cognitive psychology research provide insight into how learners absorb and process information. We can leverage this research as instructors and as learners ourselves. In this two-part workshop, we will consider evidence-based teaching methods that are grounded in how students think and learn. In this workshop, we will provide an overview of evidence-based cognitive theory (how people learn) and its application to the classroom (how we can help students to learn). This is a two-part workshop, meeting on 3/29 and 3/31. Suggested readings will be provided for part two of the workshop. Please contact Gavi Levy Haskell (gavi.levyhaskell@yale.edu) or Sooyun Choi (sooyun.choi@yale.edu) for more information.
