Blended and Experiential Learning in First-Year Course Development<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

My  project aims to redesign HIST 1002 (Twentieth Century Europe) in order to better incorporate a.) blended learning and the \u201cflipped\u201d classroom, and b.) experiential learning through research and skills workshops. Redesigning the lecture hours of the course to prioritize blended and experiential learning will allow students to access multimedia components on their own time and spend classroom time with guest workshop facilitators cultivating hands-on research tools that will serve them well in their careers. While these are more common techniques in upper level classes, they can also benefit first-year students. Blended and experiential learning requires careful scaffolding for these students, however, as they are still learning the ropes of time management, self-directed study, and university-level engagement with texts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
