Improving your course
lWhat activities encourage active learning?
lHow do my activities fit with different learning styles? lHow do my activities and my course structure fit with my educational/course philosophy?
Listing how your class activities intersect with your learning goals in a table like this is also a good way to reflect on your content delivery – what are you doing to encourage active learning? Are you addressing different learning styles? How do your activities fit with your course structure and educational philosophy.

So, for example, most of my upper division courses are a mixture of teacher-centered lecture and then small group work with data analysis, article discussion or issue discussion. My introduction to Linguistics course, on the other hand, is much more teacher-centered. There is large group discussion and some pair work, but much less than my other classes. My philosophy (and experience) for that course is that students need to be led more. It’s also a large class, making small group work more unwieldy.
