The Undercover Scientist: Teach and Discover with Stealthy Pedagogical Research
Abstract
In this presentation, I will share how my teaching became more data-driven and evolved into a stealthy pedagogical research program that is both theoretical and practical, integrated with instruction, and useful to students, teachers, and scholars. Along the way, I will describe various tools in my pedagogical research “toolkit” as well as several findings that have emerged from my classroom “laboratory” that have helped me improve my teaching as well as strengthen our collective knowledge about effective pedagogy. I will offer practical advice for helping instructors build pedagogical research into their own courses.
