Teaching Practices (Poster Only) – Analysis, synthesis, reflection, and discussion

Abstract

How can we cultivate students’ awareness of behaviors and attitudes involved in research and creative work? How can we reduce barriers between faculty and students and promote a culture of shared inquiry? This poster describes our development of a co-curricular panel discussion series that engaged a campus around the sparks, processes, and attitudes that ultimately result in creative and academic accomplishments. Our analysis of the reflections collected from approximately 200 attendees offers insights into how students conceptualize inquiry, and how transparent discussion impacts their thinking about their steps, skills, and attitudes.
