Class Time: This is a blended course, all class sessions are online. However, we will meet face-to-face
every other week for a discussion of the content and applications in your classrooms
Face-to-Face Meetings: Section 9B will meet every other Thursday, starting with 6/7/12,
6/14/12, 6/28/12, 7/12/12, 7/26/12, 8/9/12, 8/16/12.
THE COURSE
This 10-week experience is designed to create a framework for your understanding of instructional
strategies and their effective application in the classroom. The course is based and links to previously
acquired knowledge in learning theories and evidence-based teaching. Participants will learn to apply
effective strategies that stimulate critical thinking and creativity, and promote cooperative learning.
Applications of strategies will be illustrated through hands-on activities.
This course was developed from an “Active and Collaborative Learning” perspective. The active learning
approach is based on collaborative, inquiry-based, student–centered approach to teaching, in which
students are actively involved in their own knowledge acquisition.
We are experiencing a paradigm shift in teaching and learning. Strategies for effective learning are
complex and bring into play many factors from the age of the learner, prior experiences, learning styles,
the medium of instruction, cognitive development, and cultural influences.
Many factors drive curriculum and delivery designs. In order to be an effective educator, one must be
able to link the theories behind the strategies using evidence-based practice in order to maximize their
effectiveness.

Religious holidays are valid reasons to be excused from class. Students who must miss a class or
examination because of a religious holiday must inform the instructor as early in the semester as
possible in order to be excused from class and to make arrangements to make up any work that is
missed. Students who expect to miss several classes because of religious holidays are encouraged to
meet with their academic advisers to consider alternative courses.
Attendance
Participation in lectures, discussions, and other activities is an essential part of the instructional process.
Students are expected to attend class regularly; those who are compelled to miss class meetings should
inform their instructors of the reasons for absences. Faculty often include classroom participation and
attendance in student grading and evaluation. The instructor will clearly communicate expectations and
grading policy in the course syllabus. Students who expect to miss several class sessions for personal,
professional, religious, or other reasons are encouraged to meet with their academic advisers to
consider alternative courses.
Students with a documented disability who require an academic adjustment, auxiliary aid or other
similar accommodations should contact the Disability Services Office at 410-516-9734 or via email at
soedisabilityservices@jhu.edu as soon as possible, preferably four weeks prior to the beginning of the
first class.
