How can you transform your course to center student learning? When designing a new course or revising an existing one, a learner-centered approach calls for instructors to examine the relationship between learning objectives, assessments, and activities. In this interactive workshop, participants will explore strategies for aligning these components to help students focus their learning on what matters most in your course and to ensure the accuracy of your assessments. Participants will also consider a key tool used to communicate student expectations and course details: a course syllabus.
