Course Reviews

"One thing that I found super interesting was this statement that was mentioned: 80 percent of learning difficulties are related to stress.  I always strive to provide a safe learning environment for all.  I definitely plan on sharing this information with colleagues because most of the time we have control of the environment and can be more aware of the different stressors that may be affecting each student's academic success."

"This course was packed with so much valuable information about the brain processes and ways of learning. I learned about multiple intelligences, learning styles, constructivism and behaviorism, and neuro-educational research focusing on the theorists and theories. I am excited to continue to reflect on this learning throughout my career."

"I really enjoyed this course and how it was all laid out.  Using some of the ideas from this ways of learning course, I think I am a sequential learner.  I also enjoyed the self-paced deadlines of the course as well as feedback in the form grades in a timely manner to reassure me that my learning was well demonstrated and I was on the correct path. I am also metacognitive and constantly thinking about why I/others are acting and therefore what they were thinking to act in such a way so the insight in metacognition was very engaging."

"This was a very beneficial class and it taught me a lot to be able to continue on with virtual learning during this very difficult time in the country."

"The aspects of learning that this course ends with do a great job connecting the theories with practical thinking points for teachers...The different theories of learning and how our brain works can many times be overlooked as we skip to the strategies. This course allowed me to reflect on the important foundations to fall back on when the strategies can seem frustrating or difficult."

"This was a great course for refreshing what I already knew about learning theories and theorists, and for learning about some new ones. I really liked that I was able to gain new information that I can use in my current teaching practice."
