关于此电子书
Decision-Based Learning (DBL) is an innovative instructional strategy that uncovers the 'expert blind spot' to reveal the conditional knowledge that teachers (as experts) use to reason and act within the discipline. Instruction begins by modeling an expert’s decision-making process through real-world scenarios, guiding students through the conditions that shape those decisions. Learning occurs through comparison/contrast with other possible conditions at each decision point. Concepts and procedures are learned when they are relevant to the decision. With DBL, students never have to ask, 'When does this apply?'
In this book you will read stories told by faculty who have redesigned their university courses using the Decision-Based Learning pedagogy and the impact this powerful strategy can have on student learning. It should be of use to anyone teaching and designing curricula in higher education.
