Breaking Down Learning: A Guide to Scaffolding and Other Practices
Event Actions
This workshop is for Adelphi University faculty. Facilitated by Erik Fox-Jackson.
The way we structure or “break-up” course content—concepts, assignments, and even class time—can have an impact on how our students learn. If learners “get lost,” lose motivation, or make structural mistakes on assignments or projects early on, we can restructure upcoming content to bring those learners back into the fold.
During this workshop, we will discuss cognitive load as well as techniques (scaffolding, sequencing, cognitive breaks) that can be implemented to do just that.
Please reach out to fcpe@adelphi.edu with any questions you may have about the workshops or to make an appointment with our staff. We are here to assist you!
