The ability to understand and analyze scholarly texts and journal articles is a critical skill for students to obtain. However, many students have difficulty reading and understanding this material.
At the next University Center for Innovation in Teaching and Education event, Dianne Kube, lecturer in biology, will illustrate how she uses concept mapping in her courses to assist students in reading and understanding journal articles.
Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop to this event, and to download the application found at cmap.ihmc.us/products/.
The session will be held Thursday, March 24, from noon to 1 p.m. in the Allen Memorial Medical Library’s Herrick Room (use Adelbert Road doors).
Pizza and sodas will be provided at this session. RSVP to ucite@case.edu.
