alumni hall. rsvp here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n original research by first- and second-year undergraduates conducted within a biology lab course.\u00a0 original short stories written for a spanish course.\u00a0 mri machines built by engineering students in a design course.\u00a0 video documentaries created by future teachers to explore social and philosophical aspects of education.\u00a0 handcrafted creations in which theatre students show how history has influenced fashion design.<\/p>\n these are just some of the products of student learning that will be exhibited at the celebration of learning.\u00a0 our students need not be merely consumers of knowledge, but also producers of meaningful, generative work alongside the university\u2019s faculty. <\/strong> by hosting an exhibition of student projects, posters, presentations, and performances, the celebration of learning will provide the vanderbilt community with a picture of deep, engaged student learning across the colleges and schools.<\/p>\n it is significant that most of the student work that will be featured at the celebration of learning has been or will be produced within courses here at vanderbilt.\u00a0 our students are frequently involved in knowledge production outside<\/em> of the classroom, through undergraduate research, internships, student organizations, and entrepreneurial activities.\u00a0 these are significant learning experiences for students, but we can also think of students as producers inside<\/em> the classroom, taking on the roles of scholars, creators, researchers, performers, and designers.\u00a0 not only does this kind of work foster deeper learning while students are on campus, but it also helps prepare them to solve tough problems, create new knowledge, and build technologies and organizations that make a difference after they graduate.<\/p>\n faculty, if you would like to nominate one or more of your students<\/strong> to share their work at the celebration of learning, please contact 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分 director derek bruff<\/a> by monday, march 24, 2014.<\/p>\n participating students, please see this page<\/a> for important information. the event will also feature a keynote presentation on the theme of \u201cstudents as producers\u201d by randy bass<\/strong>, vice provost for education and professor of english at georgetown university. at georgetown, he is responsible for curriculum quality and development, as well as innovation in education and technology-enhanced learning. he was also the founding executive director of georgetown\u2019s teaching center, the center for new designs in learning and scholarship (cndls)<\/strong><\/a>, and continues to serve there as a senior scholar for pedagogical research. bass is known for his efforts in his own classes and with other faculty to make student learning visible<\/strong>, working at the intersections of new media technologies and the scholarship of teaching and learning for twenty years.<\/p>\n randy has led a number of multi-institution initiatives that connect with our \u201cstudents as producers\u201d theme.\u00a0 he served as creator and director of the american studies crossroads project<\/strong>, an early and influential effort to explore the use of new technologies in american studies funded by the department of education\u2019s fipse program.\u00a0 randy was director and principle investigator of the visible knowledge project<\/strong><\/a>, a digital humanities and learning project spanning twenty universities funded by the atlantic philanthropies.\u00a0 and he was co-leader of the social pedagogies project<\/strong><\/a>, funded by the teagle foundation, in which faculty at ten campuses explored teaching strategies that connect students with authentic audiences.<\/p>\n to get a sense of what randy will share in his keynote\u2014and his incredibly engaging presentation style\u2014watch his 2011 educause learning initiative talk, \u201cthe problem of learning in the postcourse era<\/strong><\/a>.\u201d his 2012 educause review article, \u201cdisrupting ourselves: the problem of learning in higher education<\/strong><\/a>,\u201d covers similar ground and is a provocative read.\u00a0 and his introduction to the social pedagogies project, \u201cdesigning for difficulty: social pedagogies as a framework for course design<\/strong><\/a>,\u201d co-authored with heidi elmendorf, has been instrumental in the development of our \u201cstudents as producers\u201d theme year.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
