- Understanding their backgrounds
- Engage students
- If necessary, challenge your own academic background if you have been used to a different teaching aproach

1. Professionals - they think they know everything. They haven't been in university for many years - unspoken rules and how to study. Need new studying skills.

2. Theory heavy students - would struggle with an applied course. Would need new skills for engaging. Maybe dialling down the reflection since they need to spend the time doing other things. Changing their assumptions about learning and universities.

3. 1st generation university students - they don't know about the norms and how to study and what is expected from them. Learning how to self-organise and self-motivate. Need to learn that the topics might not be immediately useful and applicable - not related to work but more abstract. Might be lonely - not supported at home.

Actions to take to face the challenges:

1. Helping them understand what is expected from the whole course and that they will encounter things they won't know. Help them assimilate the new knowledge in an inclusive way. Use them as an expert but keep an eye on the power dynamic. Balance group discussions. Rules of engagement. 

2. We could use their skills for good - contribute to the class. Deconstruct what they know and how they know. 

3. Encourage students to help each other. Acknowledge the diversity. Buddy system.

teorists: "vannising into the rabbit hole" lacking the broader concepts/knowledge.
1st year/new students: may be scare based on the other two groups, and therefore hide".

We need to redesign the course:
1) generate individual assignments/projects where we would expect that the two first groups will either:
a) go to their practical knowledge (lack academic level of the course).
b) not see the broader concepts. The assignment will be presented to "complicated".
c) new students: not able to harness the therory in practical work.

Second step:
team up a person from each group to develop a new project/redevelop the project.
harnessing the theory, practical knowledge and presented in a "easy conceptual way".

lectures will give the concepts
class room teaching will be involved in each groups topic/project. ]]> 2023-08-24 10:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/henholm/studentlearning/wish/2671246373 3. Imagine meeting all of the groups in the same class. How would that influence your teaching? https://padlet.com/henholm/studentlearning/wish/2671273209 - The students can learn from each other: The experienced can inspire the less experienced, and the latter can challenge the set opinions of the experienced.

Sarah: depressed, social environment, teacher projection.She doesnt know what to ask her. Approach her and ask for more information. Try different group settings.
