This page is designed to introduce a few approaches and resources.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Active Learning<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Active learning is an approach that intentionally engages students in the learning process. The focus is on the work of the students and less on the instructor. Students perform better in courses with active learning than those that center lecturing as the primary mode of teaching (Freeman, 2014). It has also shown to lead to increased equitable outcomes (Eddy &amp; Hogan, 2014; Haake et al., 2011; Lorenzo, Crouch, &amp; Mazur, 2006)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.tufts.edu\/teaching\/teaching\/student-engagement\/active-learning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Teaching@Tufts Introduction to Active Learning<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Universal Design for Learning (UDL)<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11174 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/provost.tufts.edu\/celt\/files\/211013_9426_fallstock155-570x380.jpg\" alt=\"Students study on the lawn below Goddard Chapel on October 13, 2021.

UDL asks instructors to use multiple modalities in teaching and learning in order to reach more students. This includes how instructors engage with students, how information is represented and our assessments.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Here is information about the <a href=\"https:\/\/udlguidelines.cast.org\/?utm_medium=web&amp;utm_campaign=none&amp;utm_source=cast-about-udl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">guiding principles of UDL.<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Here is a great resource about ways to <a href=\"http:\/\/udloncampus.cast.org\/page\/udl_landing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">integrate UDL specifically in higher education courses<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Group Work\/Labs<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Groups and labs can be important parts of our educational goals.

It operates under the assumption that justice cannot be separated from teaching and learning.
