MaxKnowledge and CCA Launch New Online Course:
Learning Theory and Practice
Irvine, CA, Nov. 01, 2008 - MaxKnowledge and Career College Association today announced the availability of a new online training course for career college professionals.
Course Description:
This course covers the different ways individuals learn and apply new knowledge. We start by covering the steps the brain goes through as it processes new information, and how knowledge is stored and retrieved. We then discuss how intelligence is measured and how learners process information through the use of multiple intelligences. Moving from theory to practice, the course shows instructors how to use the learning needs of students to increase knowledge acquisition and retention. The course includes a number of easy to implement strategies to help students retain and use new content.
Course Facilitator:
Dr. Gary Meers
