Signature Pedagogies: Developing Expert Thinking in Your Students

Thursday, December 9
1:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time

Recently there has been an emerging interest in the concept of signature pedagogies. Signature pedagogies represent modes of teaching that are tied to preparing people for a profession. They are distinctive approaches to teaching in a professional discipline that facilitates expert thinking and behaviour in our students. An example of a signature pedagogical approach would be the practice of medical rounds in medical training.

This webinar will provide an overview of the concept of signature pedagogies from the perspective of practitioners in the fields of Nursing, Medicine, Trades, and Business. Questions to be addressed include:

1. What are the ways of thinking and practice that are evident in your discipline?

2. Are there assumptions about learning in your discipline that result in a particular approach to teaching in your discipline or trade?

3. What will students need to learn and do to engage with that way of thinking and practice? How will they demonstrate this?
