How We Learn NEWResearch on the brain has changed the way we think about learning. There is ample evidence that our brains can continue to grow even as we age. However, did you know that the brain grows the most not when we get something right, but when we get it wrong? Struggle, striving, failure, and the capacity to reflect on what went wrong - these are the hallmarks of robust learning. The effort required to retrieve information as we learn versus merely repeating or memorizing it makes a world of difference in our capacity to access that information later. You will examine the research about how we learn and learn how to employ evidence-based strategies to improve the effectiveness of your own learning.

GENERAL INFORMATION

◘Co-listeD ClassesClasses marked with this symbol ◘ are co-listed. They are offered so that students may register either for credit or continuing education (noncredit) status. Co-listing gives students an option to choose the best path for their educational needs. Each section includes both credit and noncredit students. For students seeking credit classes, please consult the credit course schedule. The expectations for attendance, participation, and effort are the same for all students. Instructors will announce policies concerning class activities.

If you have registered as a noncredit student in a co-listed course and you wish to change from noncredit to credit status, you will have one day after the class has begun to do so. After that, you are committed to your path as a noncredit student for the remainder of the course. If the course has a required assessment level to be a credit student, you must first complete the assessment testing and meet the appropriate assessment level before you can change to credit status. Dates for co-listed classes may reflect the actual credit term dates. Please check the day on your calendar for the actual start date of your class.
