Preparing to Teach Workshops
sgts.ucsd.edu 2
The aim of these workshops is to give you a well-
supported head start on many of the things you
should do to prepare for your classes, like
 creating a syllabus
 working out an assessment scheme
 drafting learning outcomes
 deciding what kind(s) of student-centered,
alternatives to lecture you’ll use, and
developing those activities
 and more…
Who are you?
sgts.ucsd.edu 3
 name
 field/department
 what course are you teaching?
While others introduce themselves, listen
for someone doing something like you –
maybe you can work together in future
sessions.
Reminder: How People Learn
sgts.ucsd.edu 4
How People Learn: Key Findings
1. Students come to the classroom with preconceptions about how
the world works. If their initial understanding is not engaged, they
may fail to grasp the new concepts and information that are
taught, or they may learn them for purposes of a test but revert
to their preconceptions outside the classroom.
2. To develop competence in an area of inquiry, students must: (a)
have a deep foundation of factual knowledge, (b) understand facts
and ideas in the context of a conceptual framework, and (c)
organize knowledge in ways that facilitate retrieval and
application.
3. A “metacognitive” approach to instruction can help students
learn to take control of their own learning by defining learning
goals and monitoring their progress in achieving them.

  • 2. Preparing to Teach Workshops sgts.ucsd.edu 2 The aim of these workshops is to give you a well- supported head start on many of the things you should do to prepare for your classes, like  creating a syllabus  working out an assessment scheme  drafting learning outcomes  deciding what kind(s) of student-centered, alternatives to lecture you’ll use, and developing those activities  and more…
  • 3. Who are you? sgts.ucsd.edu 3  name  field/department  what course are you teaching? While others introduce themselves, listen for someone doing something like you – maybe you can work together in future sessions.
  • 4. Reminder: How People Learn sgts.ucsd.edu 4
  • 5. How People Learn: Key Findings 1. Students come to the classroom with preconceptions about how the world works. If their initial understanding is not engaged, they may fail to grasp the new concepts and information that are taught, or they may learn them for purposes of a test but revert to their preconceptions outside the classroom. 2. To develop competence in an area of inquiry, students must: (a) have a deep foundation of factual knowledge, (b) understand facts and ideas in the context of a conceptual framework, and (c) organize knowledge in ways that facilitate retrieval and application. 3. A “metacognitive” approach to instruction can help students learn to take control of their own learning by defining learning goals and monitoring their progress in achieving them. sgts.ucsd.edu 5

  • 8. Scholarly Approach to Teaching sgts.ucsd.edu 8 What should students learn? What are students learning? What instructional approaches help students learn? Everything you value, from learning outcomes to what will happen in class to how your students will be assessed, should be revealed to your students on the course syllabus.
