0.0 stars

One way of bridging the educational divide between girls/women and boys/men is by mainstreaming gender components into pedagogical delivery of instruction. There is a need for more awareness, knowledge and practice skill sets that help teachers reflect on their instructional practices. Teachers need to be cognizant of gender issues replete with students’ learning and how they can implement effective instructional pedagogies that mitigate gender bias. This article presents an instructional framework for gender-responsive collaborative learning and a resourceful tool for teachers to design gender-responsive collaborative learning environments that promote the achievement of all students.

Do you like teaching, but find yourself frustrated by how little students seem to learn? Would you like to try teaching, but are nervous about whether you will be any good at it? Are you interested in new research on science education? Research in science education shows that the greatest obstacle to student learning is the failure to identify and confront the misconceptions with which the students enter the class or those that they acquire during their studies. This weekly seminar course focuses on developing the participants' ability to uncover and confront student misconceptions and to foster student understanding and retention of key concepts. Participants read primary literature on science education, uncover basic concepts often overlooked when teaching biology, and lead a small weekly discussion session for students currently enrolled in introductory biology classes.
The instructor for this course, Dr. Julia Khodor, is a member of the HHMI Education Group.

Learn how classroom teachers, artists and arts organizations are using the arts to teach social and emotional learning (SEL). Social and emotional learning gives students strategies on how to manage their emotions and how to collaborate and empathize with others. These are important skills that help students succeed at school, work, and life. SEL can be incorporated into any subject matter and any grade level, but incorporating the arts can be an especially effective way to learn and practice SEL.
