Abstract for the conference program
This presentation will discuss the components of a well-designed STEM course and how it should result in improved student learning and retention of students in STEM courses and majors. What makes a course “well-designed?” What does “alignment” mean? What should be aligned within my course? Practical strategies based on the book Teaching and Learning STEM, by STEM education experts Richard Felder and Rebecca Brent, will be highlighted. Participants will come away with learner-centered approaches that can be incorporated into STEM course design.
