Riassunto

This title is intended as a follow-up to Achieving Excellence in Teaching: A Self-help Guide (2014). In Chapter Three of the latter, the authors posited deep learning the major goal of higher education. This book elaborates on the concept of deep learning and offers a rationale for why K-12 students have difficulty with college teaching—overcoming the learning gap. To help concerned instructors instill deep learning in their students, the book provides the Excellent Eight, specific strategies based on recent research and experience.BACKGROUND TO DEEP LEARNING / 101.
