Learning is the fundamental objective in every college course, but how does it work?  How do you get your students to deeply learn information and retain it over time?  In this workshop, we will discuss best practices in helping your students connect to course material, provide practical classroom techniques from award-winning teachers, explore methods of enhancing connections in both synchronous and asynchronous environments, and brainstorm ideas to create cross-disciplinary connections in learning.
