Topic 4: Team- Kyle Owens
2 sub points –
Good teaching should include input from the students on how the class is run, as all students have their own unique ways they learn best. College students have been taking classes for years now and are able to identify what learning styles will be most beneficial to them.
Students should have both options of working in groups or working independently, as students benefit from these options differently. When only one option is used some students are given an advantage, while others are put at a disadvantage.
Thesis – Professors can support real student learning by being more open to teaching the class a way that will benefit students most, not the professors.
2 supporting percy ideas- “Avoiding the educators direct presentation of the object as the lesson to be learned.” “The educator is well aware that something is wrong, that there is a fatal gap between the students’ learning and students’ lives.” pg 4
