Why will Collaborative and Active Learning rather than lecture be the primary means of instruction in Chem 160?
“You don’t really understand something until you can explain it to your grandmother” (Albert Einstein) “Much as we would like think that we as teachers can tell students what we have learned… the evidence shows that we cannot transfer our knowledge ready-made into students’ minds. Students have to do the actual work of learning by actively making connections and organizing learning into meaningful concepts. When students are interacting with other students to clarify, explain, and understand, they are actively building their own minds.” (from
Collaborative Learning 101
by Patricia Cross) This class is structured such that you as students can teach and learn from others.
Groups will work together daily for the entire quarter Group 1 1 1 1 Group 2 2 2 2 Group 3 3 5 3 Group 4 4 4 4 Group 5 5 5 Group 6 6 6 DO HAU D CAMPBELL NICOLE J TRAN NGAN NGOC KIM KENT KRAIG A LE KHOA NGUYEN LESTARI GABRIELLA A NGUYEN ELIZABETH A PHAN PEACE PATTERSON TIFFANY L HUNSBERGER MATTHEW D GONCE RYAN T CROPP DARCY G REED ROBERT B DOW MICHAELA KA LEIGH PORTIA R SLATER MARTIN ERIK TAHIR SAMAN A GINARTO ARIES CAO LONG KIM HOANG WATKINS ROBERT L NGUYEN HIEU TRUNG ZIETZKE DANIEL J
