Patricia & her team from @SIUE examined students' experiences in a 'Peer-Led Team Learning' introductory #biology course . Their study suggests a need for the academic & social benefits of PLTL to be communicated to students prior to the start of PLTL sessions. #SABERMidwest
Zachary & Sylvia from @SIUE present their work at #SABERMidwest on student perceptions of introductory #STEM course learning experience. Suggested Universal Design for Learning (UDL) interventions for educators from their study include: engagement, expression, & representation.
