Pearson Education and the National Center for Academic Transformation are co-sponsoring a one-and-a-half day workshop highlighting successful course redesigns that use technology to improve student learning. The workshop will feature the National Center for Academic Transformation’s (NCAT) research-based course redesign methodology that was developed in partnership with more than 50 diverse two- and four-year institutions. NCAT focuses on increasing quality and improving efficiency in large-enrollment introductory courses and has produced remarkable results in the areas of learning gains, retention, and cost savings. The workshop will also feature other innovative course redesign efforts that have led to increased student learning.
Participants in this workshop will hear from educators who have implemented course redesigns to achieve measurable and significant gains in student success. They will learn how to implement course redesign principles in both the quantitative and qualitative disciplines (math, economics, physics, political science, and English).
Participants will also have the opportunity to learn more about Pearson’s leading technology products.
