Sometimes you have to unteach students before you can teach them.
High schools tend to reinforce some unfortunate habits: excuse-making, an indifference to deadlines, an overreliance on handholding, and a focus on grades over learning, among other things. Students often carry those behaviors right into college.
You need to unteach those things before you can get down to the real business of teaching subject matter.
Teaching Underprepared Students can show you how. In this asynchronous five-part Magna Online Course, Brigham Young professors Tyler Griffin and Ken Alford provide a wealth of proven strategies for eliminating bad habits, instilling an appreciation for rigor, and boosting student performance.
This 5-hour idea-filled course will help you:
- Establish clear expectations and consequences regarding quality and accountability
- Encourage students to take ownership of their coursework
- Build engagement by offering choice in assignments and assessments
- Develop ways to instill respect for deadlines
- Give students frames of reference for good and bad work
- Create an environment that makes students comfortable taking risks in learning
The course is designed for asynchronous learning, so you can dive in right away and pick up where you left off, with access from virtually any device.
You’ll find a wealth of supplemental materials to support the course content, including handouts, full transcripts, readings, and links to online resources. A final check on learning leads to a certificate of completion.
The rigors of college work can come as a shock to students used to the more relaxed approach of their high school years. Teaching Underprepared Students gives you the tools and techniques to quickly get them acclimated to—and accepting of—college standards. Add it to your professional development library today!
