Active and authentic learning
Authentic learning occurs when students use the course content in a way that simulates how they would use it in real life. Active learning occurs when the students are asked to engage with the material through group work, projects, presentations, or investigation rather than solely gaining knowledge through lecture.
Collaboration in the classroom
A collaborative classroom utilizes the students' voices in course policies, grading practices, and curriculum design.
transparency in assignments and syllabi
Transparency involves creating documentation that clearly explains its purpose, goals, objectives and evaluation criteria.
Reflective teaching and learning
Paired with obtaining knowledge from a course is reflecting on what was learned, how it was learned, its usefulness and how it may have changed the students' or instructors' thoughts or actions.
