Taking the Fear Out of Learning
April 15, 2010 - 9:18 am
The goal here is to take the fear out of learning and help the students identify what strategies work well for them and what they can do to maximize their style of learning. Regulation is improved by using this format because the student’s competitive nature comes to the surface when playing the game. There is an enthusiasm and zeal for learning that no letter grade could provide. Simultaneously, when students are interacting in their discussions the information leaps from the page in an abstract form and immediately takes on a real life perspective about the student and their experience. What do you think about that?
