Examples

  • Lendol Calder from Augustana College poses the question. Can an instructor make historical facts meaningful for beginning students by teaching them to work with evidence in the manner of historians? His answer is an exciting way of teaching a history survey course that is a great example of many Guidelines in action: Uncoverage: Toward a Signature Pedagogy for the History Survey. link


  • Kayt Davies, an ALTC citation awardee, provides a great example of Guideline 6 in action with a publication called "3rd degree" written  and produced by students in journalism. The publication provides an authentic workplace experience that hones the students' skills. Working under the supervision of experienced journalists, they take the publication through every stage of its lifecycle, from newsgathering to upload. Link
