A Conversation About the Benefits of High Structure Course Design


Justin’s Recommendation

In this podcast, I chat with Bonni Stachowiak about the myriad of benefits of using high structure course design and we get into some details on using clickers, case studies, and reading guides all of which support high structure.

Some quotes from the episode:

Some students might be doing just fine with the traditional, maybe unstructured class. But we know from evidence, lots of research now shows that this type of structure does help students.

The keyword through all 3 steps is alignment.

I don't think the structure necessarily guarantees success because it's the students ultimately have to put the work in to earn that grade, to earn that outcome.
