Thinking About Learning Activities
- Due No Due Date
- Points None
Active learning activities build on a "rich learning experience," allow interaction around information and ideas, and an opportunity for reflective dialogue.
How active are your activities?
Review the activities in your online (or to-be-online) course and pick one that clearly aligns with your learning outcomes and that you want to revise.
- How does it compare to the criteria in the rubric?
- How could you revise the activity to better support learning and motivation?
- What tools could you use to support the activity and why?
This assignment is not required as part of the badge. It is a thought exercise that also allows you to see how the Canvas Rubric tool works from a student perspective.
