Bluffton University professor to discuss ‘new’ tools for student learning
Dr. Walt Paquin, professor of social work at Bluffton University, will present the Colloquium, “Developing 'New' Tools for Student Learning,” at 4:00 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 3 in Centennial Hall’s Stutzman Lecture Hall.
This presentation focuses on the projects that Paquin has explored over his 2021-22 sabbatical. Paquin has significantly revised the ‘Learning in Community’ course to increase student engagement in the Lima community. He also discovered ways to enhance student engagement and “learning activities” throughout the Social Work curriculum at Bluffton University.
Paquin states that, “both projects were focused on how to shift from content heavy courses to a course delivery that engages students in the learning process and strives to provide hands-on learning as a context for content engagement.”
This event is free and open to the public.
