Teaching Strategies & Classroom Techniques 2002

Description/Objectives:
A workshop to demonstrate and share hands on teaching strategies and techniques. This year, three strategies will be demonstrated: (1) writing to learn, (2) using peer evaluations to influence behaviors, and (3) using a clinic (similar to a law school clinic) to teach technical, communication, and critical thinking skills. Each strategy/technique will be demonstrated with audience participation. There will be a discussion of where the strategy/technique might fit in the participants' current programs (both graduate and undergraduate programs) and how the strategy/technique meets the AICPA competency model. Participants are requested to bring examples of how they have used the strategy/technique to share with others in the workshop.

Format/Structure:
Hands-on demonstration and sharing of teaching strategies and techniques with discussion following each strategy and/or technique as to participants' experiences with the strategy and/or technique.

Intended Audience:
All members interested in sharing ideas on improving teaching strategies and techniques at the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Sandra Byrd, Southwest Missouri State University
Debra Kerby, Truman State University
Sherry Mills, New Mexico State University
