Description:
Title: Developing expertise: practical approach to teaching in hands-on settings
Presenters: Siara Isaac, Roland Tormey
Summary: Labs, studios, fieldwork, and projects are key opportunities for the deliberate practice engineering students need to develop their disciplinary skills.
Drawing on research on the nature and development of ‘expertise’, we provide evidence-informed and practical approaches to teaching in hands-on settings from our newly published book Facilitating Experiential Learning in Higher Education.
While the book also addresses providing feedback, structuring explanations, and managing relationships with a class, this session will include activities on how to formulate and employ questions to maximise the rich learning potential of hands-on environments.
