The Ohio State University

Designing a high-structure course to support students’ self-testing and metacognition

Goals

  • Describe a high-structure course design model and why it leads to better learning outcomes for all students.  

  • Identify ways that lesson-level learning objectives and study skills training can support underprepared students. 

  • Connect different parts of the Codon Learning platform with the evidence-based practices they support, including high-structure course design and self-regulated learning strategies such as metacognition, spacing, and self-testing.

Agenda

Part 1 — High-Structure Course Design and Its Impact on Learning Outcomes, Scott Freeman, PhD (University of Washington)

Part 2 — Fostering Metacognition in the Classroom, Jaime Sabel, PhD (The Ohio State University)

Part 3 — Using Technology to Operationalize Lesson-Level Learning Objectives and Design a High-Structure Course, Ashley Rowland, PhD (Codon Learning)
