Instructors have the power to create (or co-create) guideposts that shape how students engage in class throughout the semester? Class norms are the familiar ways members of a learning community interact with one another, created through implicit and explicit reinforcement. Allocating class time to discuss and set these norms enhances understanding and adherence to course expectations. Moreover, involving students in the creation of class norms can foster a more engaging, accountable, and cohesive classroom environment. Research shows that co-created norms significantly boost student respect and participation. Join this workshop to explore practical strategies for developing and implementing co-created class norms in your courses.
