Partnering with the Learning Science Lab means having a thought partner in course design, instructional strategy, and evidence-based teaching. Each core course will have a small faculty group that defines the key topics every section will cover. This alignment process ensures consistency across the curriculum and should be completed by Fall 2026.
Faculty meet with LSL to explore student engagement strategies.
LSL creates tailored recommendations and works with you to build them into your slides and materials.
After course launch, the LSL team will schedule periodic check-ins with you to support refining and adapt your active learning strategies as the term progresses.
LSL will work with each core team to reflect on the course changes and help to turn insights into targeted refinements.
The LSL team will work with you to identify active learning strategies that will fit within your class materials and teaching style.
The Learning Science Lab has developed a PowerPoint template tailored for the Stern community, designed with pedagogy and usability in mind.
For more information on how to effectively use PowerPoint templates, including ours, check out our 15-minute workshop, "Level up your PowerPoint skills."
How do active leanring strategies map onto your course schedule? This template will help you make a plan for increasing engagement.
