Research-informed teaching and learning

Description

An invited talk delivered online to faculty members of the Shanghai University
Abstract: Co-creating knowledge with undergraduates is an exciting and rewarding journey. Course-based research strategies keep students ahead of the curve and prepare them for life-long learning. My unique implementation of the pedagogical strategy is this: every student, whether in introductory or advanced courses, major or non-major, participates. By doing so, I cultivate a sense of academic curiosity and enlarge every student’s capacity for continuous learning and personal development. In this presentation, I am going to share best practices of the design and the implementation of the course-based research assignments and research projects. I shall discuss the impact of implementing course-based research pedagogy on students’ learning and the adoption of this pedagogy by my colleagues. At the end of the article, I shall discuss my initiatives of transferring this pedagogy to benefit secondary school students.
