Rigor Redefined: Ten Teaching Habits for Surface, Deep, and Transfer Learning (Enables students to take ownership of their learning process)

As educators, it is our responsibility to ensure that our students not only acquire knowledge but also understand how to apply it in various contexts. This requires a shift in our teaching practices towards fostering surface, deep, and transfer learning. By implementing the following ten teaching habits, we can empower our students to take ownership of their learning process and become lifelong learners:

1. Set clear learning goals: Clearly defined learning objectives help students understand what is expected of them and provide a roadmap for their learning journey.

2. Encourage active engagement: Engage students in meaningful activities that require them to think critically, analyze information, and apply concepts in real-world scenarios.

3. Provide constructive feedback: Offer timely and specific feedback that helps students understand their strengths and areas for improvement.

4. Foster collaboration: Encourage students to work together, share ideas, and learn from each other through group projects and discussions.

5. Cultivate curiosity: Spark students’ curiosity by posing thought-provoking questions, encouraging them to explore new ideas, and seek answers independently.

6. Promote reflection: Encourage students to reflect on their learning experiences, identify their learning preferences, and set goals for improvement.

7. Use a variety of assessment strategies: Employ a mix of formative and summative assessments that evaluate students’ understanding at different levels of learning.

8. Emphasize real-world connections: Help students see the relevance of what they are learning by making connections to their lives, future careers, and societal issues.

9. Provide opportunities for self-directed learning: Encourage students to take initiative in their learning process, set their own goals, and seek resources independently.

10. Cultivate a growth mindset: Instill in students the belief that their abilities can be developed through effort and perseverance, and that failure is a natural part of the learning process.

By incorporating these teaching habits into our classrooms, we can create a learning environment that promotes surface, deep, and transfer learning, and empowers students to take ownership of their learning journey. Let’s redefine rigor in education and prepare our students for success in the 21st century and beyond.
