Thinking About Learning Activities

Due No Due Date
Points None

Active learning activities build on a "rich learning experience," allow interaction around information and ideas, and an opportunity for reflective dialogue.

How active are your activities?

Review the activities in your online (or to-be-online) course and pick one that clearly aligns with your learning outcomes and that you want to revise.

How does it compare to the criteria in the rubric?
How could you revise the activity to better support learning and motivation?
What tools could you use to support the activity and why?

This assignment is not required as part of the badge. It is a thought exercise that also allows you to see how the Canvas Rubric tool works from a student perspective.
