Full Description
Do you remember how you learned to ride a bike? It probably went something like, 'put on the training wheels, learn to brake/steer; remove training wheels, try to ride with a strong hand on the back to keep you balanced, try on your own as you wobbled along; then fell a few times before you...rode away and never looked back'. If you teach student ownership of these concepts in class, they are more likely to take responsibility for their successes and failures and "own" their learning. Our instructional materials are different than anything else on the market both in format and content. First, we offer a multimedia professional development course on Ownership in an easy-to-use online format that walks through teaching methods and includes ready-to-use activities, coaching tips, assessments, animations, and video on a topic (ie. - Critical Thinking). Second, we provide a short, affordable student print or digital booklet covering ownership essentials and the critical thinking topic that can be used independently or as part of your course. Instructors will learn how to use this groundbreaking four-step process to teach ownership to any student in any class.This method moves them from dependent to independent learning, so students can apply the process to any course and the workplace. AVAILABILITY: It is available via our Pearson Custom Library program as a standalone product or as part of a custom text.
