Workshop Description:

Are you looking to better develop your students as self-directed learners, problem-solvers, designers, and/or professionals?

Have you already built reflective practices into your course plans or is reflection something you are interested in but have yet to incorporate into your classes?

Learning science tells us that reflection is important for achieving deep learning and mastering effective design and problem solving skills.  However, figuring out how to build reflective practices into class activities and assignments can prove challenging given time limitations and all that we need to accomplish with our students during the span of a semester.

This workshop will provide an opportunity for Georgia Tech faculty to share ideas and learn more about how to use reflection effectively to enhance learning in our classes.
