Featuring Keynote Speaker Dr. Linda Nilson, Self-Regulated Learning: Active Learning on the Inside

Most students have serious misconceptions about learning, especially about the amount of effort and focus it requires and your role in their learning process. As a result, few students can retain the course content and skills or learn from their mistakes. Self-regulated learning dispels these misconceptions and helps students understand what learning actually involves. After this keynote, you will be able to explain what self-regulated learning (SRL) is, what line of research gave rise to it, and how it enhances student learning and adult success. This keynote will summarize some of the evidence behind this claim. In addition, you will be able to implement SRL activities and assignments for the start and end of a course.

The call for session proposals is now open. Full proposal guidelines and options can be found by downloading the 10th Annual University Showcase Call for Proposals form (PDF). You can submit your proposal via our online submission form.

Sessions, raffles, presentations, and more will be announced soon. Please save the date now!
