Episode Synopsis

Guest: Laura Le | Senior Lecturer | Division of Biostatistics & Health Data Science | University of Minnesota

Additional Resources:

SQ3R Tool: A brief resource on a technique for reading to promote understanding.

Textbooks, journal articles, news pieces…these are a few examples of resources we give students to supplement course lectures and activities.  As faculty, we appreciate both the wisdom in these resources and the work it takes to produce them.  We take great care in curating the right assignments to benefit our students.  And we know the frustration of leading a discussion with a class that did not complete the assigned reading!  In this series, we explore strategies faculty have used to encourage students to engage with course reading assignments, making them an integral part of the learning experience.
