Description

Do you sometimes find yourself wondering how students learn in your class? Have you ever analyzed your students’ work looking for patterns in their learning? Are you interested in finding out whether a pedagogical change will improve your students’ learning? If so, then join your colleagues for a continuing discussion about all aspects of planning, executing, and publishing a scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) project.

In this session, we’ll discuss Maurer and Cabay’s study, Challenges of shaping student study strategies for success: Replication and extension, published in Teaching and Learning Inquiry 11, 2023. Click the “PDF” button on the right-hand side of the page linked above to read the paper.

We will examine the authors’ research questions, study design, and methodological approach to data. As you think about how you might approach this common concern of helping students learn effective study strategies in your classes, what are other research questions that come to mind? What other kinds of interventions and data collection might be appropriate in your context?
