2. Structure of Knowledge Freshman view of university curriculum

Structure of Knowledge Add General Education

Structure of Knowledge

Teaching-Learning Models ► Teacher-centered model ► Student-centered model ► Subject-centered model

Teacher-Centered Weaknesses Teacher serves as gatekeeper and filter Delivers conclusions (gives) to students (who take) Learning takes place in classroom where the teacher is saved from saying the same thing more than once

Student-Centered Weaknesses Students seen as reservoirs of knowledge to be tapped Standards of accountability arise from the group itself Teacher’s role may be seen as a necessary evil Can degenerate into something less than the community of truth

Subject-Centered Characteristics Subject “sits in the middle and knows” Teacher articulates the presuppositions of the discipline Teacher and students critically reflect on presuppositions Teacher models for students the modes of inquiry to extract meaning Subject holds teacher and student alike accountable for what they say and do

Subject-Centered + GenEd Philosophy Literature CommunicationFine Arts Business Science Social Science Sociology Religion Psychology Mathematics Education Other disciplines Inform my view

Discussion 1. What characterizes an educated person in 2013? 2. What are TNU’s unique contributions that help her students become educated persons? 3. How will the general education curriculum contribute to developing educated persons? 4. [How well are we doing?]

3. Blatant Solicitation ► Include incentives for taking MAPP assessment in your capstone syllabus ► Discuss GenEd issues and ideas with your colleagues and representative ► Work with your representative to communicate ideas to improve curriculum, improve faculty and student attitudes, and help students understand how GenEd contributes to their education
