GPS989

We're talking about what we learned in GPS 989 Introduction to University Teaching. Over 4 months, we learned how students learn, how to plan for teaching, and how to design short lessons using the BOPPPS model (that’s bridge-in, outcomes, pre-assessment participatory learning, post-assessment, and summary). The purpose of this podcast is for us to share what we ‘used to’ think and what we ‘now’ think, or do, regarding teaching.
