ZU students as critical thinkers Preferred learning styles –Deep learning –Understanding –Mastery –Conclusions using evidence –Supported arguments and explanations

Surface learning Learning means making sure you remember things well: 81% very or quite close to my beliefs Learning means building up knowledge through facts and information: 96% very or quite close to my beliefs

Deep learning Learning means developing as a person: 96% very or quite close to my beliefs Learning means understanding new ideas and information for yourself: 100% very or quite close to my beliefs Learning means seeing things in a different and more meaningful way: 90% very or quite close to my beliefs

Surface teaching I prefer teachers who tell us exactly what to put in our notes (90% like or definitely like) I prefer assignments or tests which need only the material provided in our classes (88% like or definitely like) I prefer readings which give me definite information and facts which can easily be learned (95% like or definitely like)

Deep teaching I prefer teachers who encourage us to think for ourselves and show us how they think: 94% like or definitely like I prefer courses which expect us to find new reading and ideas for ourselves: 95% like or definitely like I prefer assignments or exams which allow me to show I have thought about the course material myself: 72% like or definitely like.
