Description:

Faculty Workshop - Encouraging Risk and Failure in Learning

Wednesday, March 1, 2017
1:00pm-2:30pm

Not surprisingly, we often focus on helping our students succeed. However, research has long suggested that giving students the space, time and permission
to take risk, try new ideas, and even fail can lead to deeper learning, enhanced
creativity, and improved critical thinking. In this interactive session, we
will explore strategies that faculty in different disciplines may use to encourage risk while learning.
