Session 7D4 MODEL FOR INQUIRY AND REFLECTION ABOUT LEARNING AND TEACHING
Abstract:
Abstract ⎯ Engineering educators are encouraged to learn more about learning and teaching. However, researchers from many different disciplines publish theories, research, principles and practice on learning and teaching in many diverse journals and conferences. When confronted by an intimidating, largely unfamiliar wilderness, the reluctance of many engineering faculty members to explore becomes more understandable. To reduce their reluctance the author presents a three-component model that may serve as a map for inquiry into research regarding learning and teaching. The first component of the model examines work in establishing expectations. In this component research has focused on providing language and frameworks with which teachers may formulate and communicate their expectations for learning and performance. For example, teachers are
