With the 2021 TBLC Meeting just around the corner, we would like to bring attention to one of our featured workshops: Designing Course Policy Statements That Optimize Beliefs and Maximize Motivation in the TBL Classroom. This session will be presented by Karla Kubitz. We hope you enjoy this session!

Title: Designing Course Policy Statements That Optimize Beliefs and Maximize Motivation in the TBL Classroom
Presented by: Karla Kubitz – Towson University
Date & Time: Friday, March 5, 2021, 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM ET

Given the potentially beneficial impact on intention and behavior in the classroom, TBL course policy statements should ideally support the development of optimal behavioral beliefs, normative beliefs, and control beliefs for all of our diverse learners. The Designing Course Policy Statements workshop will be conducted using a TBL format. Attendees will be provided with a pre-workshop reading assignment related to the theory of planned behavior and the workshop will begin with an individual and a team Readiness Assurance Test. The workshop will continue with several Application Activities. Application Activities will challenge teams to: (a) classify exemplar TBL course policy statements according to whether they focus on behavioral beliefs, normative beliefs, or control beliefs; and (b) to decide whether exemplar TBL course policy statements are likely to optimize behavioral beliefs, normative beliefs, and control beliefs. Upon completion of the Workshop, attendees should be able to transfer what they learned and evaluate/ redesign their own course policy statements.

We hope you enjoy this and our other exciting workshops.
