The whole point of the seminar is that ... maybe the students don't get it right, and maybe the students don't know everything about the subject, but it's the fact that the students figured it out on their own that makes it their own, and it makes them able to internalize that subject. ... I learned more in my [seminars] than I did in all my prior learning experience. And I think mostly its because I retained more ... because I was able to take my education into my own hands ... take what I was reading and make it my own.

Constructive and Destructive Group Behaviors | Teaching and Learning Excellence - 0 views

Inspired to bookmark this from the grad attributes consultation in which one group had two members who were engaging in 'destructive group behaviours' (brought onto the straight and narrow eventually by a skilled facilitator) ... I have heard it suggested that if groups are being derailed by dominating or digressing types, it can be useful for the whole group to sit down and consider what kind of group member they are in order to limit their unhelpful behaviours and get the group working well again.

I missed out on the session today so I'm not sure of the context of this, I can imagine though! As an aside...this is a very interesting web site all round...I've just been watching a presentation on "How people learn" and it's interesting from the point of view of the subject matter and from the perspective of how the material has been made available. I know Giles is working hard trying to put together videos of some of our own academics talking about teaching and I look forward to seeing them!

What Should Colleges Teach? - Stanley Fish Blog - NYTimes.com - 0 views

Article by Stanley Fish which raises some interesting questions about the place of writing in university study, and whether it should be embedded in the disciplines or taught separately. It plays into wider debates about canon-formation. More relevant to the US system but still interesting I thought.
