How can deeper approaches to teaching and learning help our students better combat their problems in the increasingly turbulent 21st century? And what can we do as instructors and educational developers to support these deeper approaches in today’s colleges and universities?
In this book, Dr. Marchand answers these questions by outlining a curriculum that can help you have a greater impact throughout your career in higher education. Written to be practical and accessible for both new and mid-career educators, this book reviews core concepts, theories and strategies in tertiary instruction and educational development that can help you not only improve your own approach to teaching and training but also help you shift school cultures away from teacher-centered transfer towards more student-centered, experiential and transformative learning. Based on training curricula piloted and iterated at multiple universities over five years, this book will help you articulate why change is needed in higher education, what that change looks like, and how you and other educators you work with can practically achieve it.
