Co-hosted by Pearson and The National Center for Academic Transformation (NCAT)
These PowerPoint slides were provided by World Languages presenters who redesigned their large-enrollment courses using Pearson's MyLanguageLab products. Each presentation outlines the following:
problems that the particular department faced before implementing course redesign
steps they took to implement course redesign
the results their students achieved in redesigned courses
We hope these presentations will provide you with ideas for implementing course redesign to meet the challenges of your department and improve student learning using MyLanguageLabs!
