This document outlines implications for teaching based on student learning theories. It discusses three key issues that can hinder the student learning journey: 1) disconnected curriculum design, 2) overemphasis on content knowledge over concepts, and 3) lack of authentic student engagement. To address these, the document recommends curriculum design that connects learning across courses, focusing more on teaching concepts than content, and increasing formative assessment and student-led intellectual activities. It argues this shifts learning from a transmission model to a social constructivist model that better facilitates students' intellectual development.
