HUM 300 Learning Activities

A large part of formal learning – both in the classroom and outside of it – is mostly unassessed and aimed at helping students to deepen their understanding of the material and master certain skills.

Different kinds of learning activity examples are assembled in this part of the instructor’s manual. Some of these activities were created by the Transforming the Justice Core Project staff as samples to illustrate how scaffolded activities can be set up to help students master specific skills, while others were submitted by instructors teaching HUM 300 courses or those who had designed the model syllabi for those courses. Some activities here are ungraded and function as formative assessments and others represent low-stakes assignments whose major function is to provide formative assessments and help students gain specific academic skills.
