In a collegial environment, students apply their learning from previous courses by teaching a short lesson to their peers. Students also submit a lesson plan, provide feedback to each other about the teaching and learning process, act as facilitators and assistants, and engage in self-reflection for continuous growth.

Students explore a variety of teaching and training tools, ranging from the traditional to the latest technologies, that can be used to enhance teaching techniques used in the instructional process. Emphasis is placed on the appropriate selection and use of these tools.

Students plan an adult learning session using a lesson plan template which is constructed to reflect adult learning principles and include learning activities and assessment(s) aligned to distinct learning outcomes. The template can be applied to the Micro-Teaching clinic course.

In this course, students examine the instructor’s role in learner engagement and motivation, and factors affecting learner motivation. Through discussion and demonstration of instructional strategies, students explore how to enhance learner engagement and motivation.

This course is an introduction to teaching and training adult learners. Students explore the principles of adult learning and their practical application in the creation and management of effective learning environments. This course is a prerequisite for subsequent offerings and must be taken first in the program.

This module provides an introduction to facilitation skills for supporting adult learning. By providing structure, processes and frameworks, facilitators enable others to reach their individual or group goals.
