Deep Learning Video

Video activity

Group discussion Does each of these scenes promote deep learner? Why? Why not? What do we usually do in our courses that results in surface learning? What do we need to do to encourage our students to take a deep approach to learning? How can we teach so that Robert becomes like Susan? Think of a course you are teaching/taking, what specific changes would you introduce to promote deep learning? Create an expectation failure for students in one of your courses.
