Effectively Teaching Diverse Student Groups: A Reflection on Teaching and Learning Strategies
Trees, Kathryn
Australian Journal of Adult Learning, v53 n2 p234-252 Jul 2013
This paper discusses facilitating student collegiality within diverse student groups. It argues that diverse student groups of international, domestic, mature age and Gen Y students often have similar difficulties and strengths although they may occur for quite different reasons and understanding this is useful when deciding on teaching and learning strategies. It describes several teaching and learning strategies and explains the outcomes of using these with
diverse student cohorts.
