 Teaching and Learning

Grad students Seken Guzey and Brant Miller;
Stephan Carlson, University Extension;
Gillian Roehrig, and Tamara Moore,
Curriculum and Instruction collaborate on a
STEM project,
Reach for the Sky.
The focus of this theme is on integrating evidence-based
teaching, learning, and assessment practices into classrooms;
improving pedagogical practices and creating, documenting,
analyzing, and improving organizations and strategies to enhance
learning experiences through the E-14 school years, advancing the
values of productive citizenship and service; promoting school
completion and the successful transition of youth from school to
postsecondary education.
Blocks
A block is a group of people within or across neighborhoods who
develop strategies to work on mission-driven goals in teaching,
research, and/or engagement. Blocks are forming now.
Join us!
You're welcome to join a block forming now or to suggest a new
one. Contact one of us or follow the instructions at
