| Tips for tutors to develop ‘skills’ and independence in their students | Katy Bloom | By the end of the session participants will be able to think about different ways to:
• develop effective student learning habits • encourage students to respond more proactively • consider the needs of different students by extending their range of learning activities • project more expectation of student partnership rather than participation |
Consider what sort of a conversation you want to have with your students about being independent. What would this look like? How can you use the techniques from this session to model it? What checklists can you create for your subject areas? Identify procedural/disciplinary content that would benefit from this approach and gather data including feedback to evidence student gains in learning and self-regulation |
