Читать книгу Student Engagement Techniques - Elizabeth F. Barkley - Страница 34

ALTHOUGH THE TERMS teaching and learning are typically paired, those of us who teach know that students don't always learn. As a thoughtful colleague once said, “Saying ‘I taught students something, they just didn't learn it’ is akin to saying ‘I sold them the car, they just didn't buy it.’” As Angelo and Cross (1993) point out, “Learning can and often does take place without the benefit of teaching—and sometimes in spite of it—but there is no such thing as effective teaching in the absence of learning. Teaching without learning is just talking” (p. 3). Since helping students learn is our primary goal as teachers, how do we best accomplish that? The simplest answer may be to set up conditions that promote active learning, which is the second factor in our student engagement model.
