One of the most important contributions educational developers can offer instructors is to help them understand how learning works. After all, learning is the litmus test of any pedagogy. This interactive workshop synthesizes 60+ years of research on learning from the cognitive, motivational, developmental, and DEI perspectives into eight integrated principles. It is based on the second edition of the presenters’ book, with a deeper focus on diversity, inclusion and equity. Emphasis will be placed on experiencing and unpacking activities that illuminate each principle. Participants will leave with a toolbox of activities they can reuse in their own work.
