Theory and Practice

This semester I am participating in both the Undergrads Engaging in Inquiry group and the Service Learning Reading Group. Both groups provide stimulating--and sometimes challenging!--conversation and reflection. I especially enjoy listening to the participants describe the concrete assignments, projects, and activities that they do in their classes. Inspired by our readings and discussions, I have written new classroom activities, reflective diary prompts and midterm exam items. My own inquiry process will lead me to look at students' reactions to these new additions to my courses.
