Worth Considering: Faculty perspective on student-centered pacing

By Phil Hill. Over the weekend I wrote a post based on the comment thread at Friday’s Chronicle article on e-Literate TV.

One key theme coming through from comments at the Chronicle is what I perceive as an unhealthy cynicism that prevents many people from listening to students and faculty on the front lines (the ones taking redesigned courses) on their own merits.

Inge Ignatia de WaardBy Inge Ignatia de Waard. Learning comes natural, and happens on a daily basis.As soon as the learning gene is put inside of us, we learn. We have to.
