Module 6 Overview

Module Introduction

Module 6 (Week 6) will be completed online. This module focuses on "How People Learn". You will be introduced to ten research-based principles of learning and asked to choose complementary instructional strategies applicable to each of the principles. While there are more than ten principles of learning, these ten were selected because they are likely to apply to one or more of the responsibilities assigned to you as a UTA. In other words, you are more likely to have a chance to use them as you work with students in your assigned course.
