Taking Charge of Learning: Tips for Students - David G. Brown, Syllabus

My recurring pedagogical theme is that each student is at the center of his or her learning. As teachers-professors we catalyze. We coach. We connect. In the end, however, each student must take personal responsibility for learning. Properly used, each student’s computer is an efficient and very effective tool that enhances the pursuit of this responsibility. Along those lines, here are some views that professors may find useful to pass along to their students. First, use e-mail to form a learning support group with students in the same class and keep in touch throughout the course. Consult with the professor to clarify a confusing assignment. Share the response with the rest of the class. Use e-mail to help others, and to get help from others.
