"What the Best College Teachers Do" author's keynote ODU address is now available for viewing

<p> &nbsp;</p> <p> At last May&rsquo;s Faculty Summer Institute on Teaching and Learning, Dr. Ken Bain, historian, educator, and author of the international best seller &ldquo;What the Best College Teachers Do&rdquo; (Harvard University Press, 2004), delivered a thought-provoking keynote address entitled &ldquo;Learning By Design: How to Foster Deep Learning.&rdquo;&nbsp;</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> The nearly 150 Institute participants saluted Dr. Bain&rsquo;s interactive approach to both his lecture and his style of teaching and learning.&nbsp; He encourages teachers to &ldquo;find the question&rdquo; that their students most want answered.&nbsp; That question, he says, will engage them and will make them want to learn.</p> <p> &nbsp;</p> <p> Ken Bains&rsquo; thoughtful and inspirational keynote address is now available for viewing on the Center for Learning and Teaching&rsquo;s website at <a href="http://clt.odu.edu/si/2013/keynote/">http://clt.odu.edu/si/2013/keynote/</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;We encourage you to view it, enjoy it, and learn from it.</p>
