    Description

    Studies show that watching someone perform a task doesn't really teach students how to do it. In fact, it often gives a false sense of confidence in one's ability to perform a task. This talk will outline a proven, highly effective process that is in use at Georgia Institute of Technology to teach professional-level software certifications. Not only is this a remote teaching strategy, it's a remote teaching strategy that is more effective than many in-person teaching strategies! The talk will use content from the speaker’s introductory college-level CAM class using Fusion 360 software, as well as Canvas Network for the instructional materials. But you can apply the principles to any skill or process, including hands-on technical skills, and any classroom platform, including Blackboard, Microsoft Teams, and Google Classroom.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn how students consume tutorial content, and how simple tutorials are not as effective as engaged learning.
    • Learn how to scope individual assignments so the intro-challenge-solution model can work.
    • Learn what tools and procedures are most effective in teaching while driving students to apply, not simply mimic, processes.
    • Discover examples of effective instruction in the intro-challenge-solution model.
