Creating a community of learners is the foundation of effective teaching. You may be passionate about the subject you teach, plan relevant and interesting activities, and deliver fascinating information—but none of this matters if students are afraid to speak up in class, feel that they can't contribute, and don't get the support and encouragement they need to learn.
In this course module, you'll explore characteristics of learners that make them unique and diverse individuals, and discover how to create a physical, social, and psychological climate conducive to learning.
