I want to use the four principles and 5 assumptions listed in this article to design my materials. It can also be used by the students to make sure they are aligning their presentations with audience needs. ]]> 2020-11-15 21:41:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jibechtel/pm98arj0nm9rxuk8/wish/925192487 jibechtel https://padlet.com/jibechtel/pm98arj0nm9rxuk8/wish/925208463 Understanding what motivates students is important for me as the instructor to best craft my course materials. Its also important for students as they prepare their presentations and provide feedback for their classmates.  If we (me and other students) know why a student is in the class we can help them the most. ]]> 2020-11-15 21:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jibechtel/pm98arj0nm9rxuk8/wish/925208463 jibechtel https://padlet.com/jibechtel/pm98arj0nm9rxuk8/wish/949950922 I have students do a persuasive speech on a topic of their choice as one of their main assignments. In the past, most students have picked very uncontroversial topics. This only required demonstrating their knowledge within lower levels on Blooms taxonomy.

Giving a scenario where students need create a plan for a public response to it and having them teach sections of the lesson are possible ways to increase active learning. ]]> 2020-11-22 19:37:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jibechtel/pm98arj0nm9rxuk8/wish/950267457
