S3E1 - Course Readings

Guest: Lauren Hecht | Professor | Department of Psychological Science | Gustavus Adophus College
Textbooks, journal articles, news pieces…these are a few examples of resources we give students to supplement course lectures and activities.  As faculty, we appreciate both the wisdom in these resources and the work it takes to produce them.  We take great care in curating the right assignments to benefit our students.  And we know the frustration of leading a discussion with a class that did not complete the assigned reading!  In this series, we explore strategies faculty have used to encourage students to engage with course reading assignments, making them an integral part of the learning experience.
