Abstract: In this session, we will explore seven basic principles of learning, because learning results from what students do, and only what students do; our impact as educators is in creating the conditions to engage students in the process that leads to learning. Our discussion will include translation of the principles into practice in the design and teaching of courses, labs, studios, and other educational experiences.
