Teaching Example
Teaching Example
My teaching primarily focuses on 'how to teach', applying learning theories and principles of instructional design - In particular the use of multimedia resources. I do employ a lot of concept maps and images in my teaching to help illustrate points and show a broader picture of topics. The image below was part of my class on designing an active learning activity using problem-based learning (PBL). I selected a controversial topic; the carbon tax, and outlined how this can be used to design an active learning exercise.
