Abstract:   Faculty members in all disciplines have become increasingly aware of the need to apply the newly emerging research on the biological basis of learning to their own classes.  This workshop will explore some of that research, discuss its implications for teaching and learning, and then model some specific practices that will enhance the learning process and foster student engagement.  These practices will also be framed by the international research on deep learning, giving faculty a coherent framework for intentional lesson preparation.  This highly interactive session will draw eclectically from practices also associated with classroom assessment, cooperative learning, and writing across the curriculum.  Although grounded in research, the focus of this session will be on practical strategies designed to enhance student engagement.
