Effective teachers understand that what learners bring to the classroom is just as important as what the teachers bring. This plenary session will review academic research on student learning, teaching theory, and teaching strategies and then link that discussion to practical advice for excellence in classroom teaching. Awareness of the learning and teaching research can help teachers to promote a positive classroom experience and improve outcomes.
