from Podagogies: A Learning and Teaching Podcast · host Podagogies: A Learning and Teaching Podcast

Dr. David Cramb is Dean of the Faculty of Science at Ryerson University, and a passionate advocate for reimagining science education at the post-secondary level. In this episode, we discuss how to shift the culture of science pedagogy in a direction that encourages students to embrace failure, to own the process of learning, and to learn science by doing science. From competency-based assessments to problem-based learning and getting undergraduates more involved in research experiences, to overcoming the tyranny of content in STEM and informing our teaching practice with evidence-based approaches, David Cramb offers a wealth of insight on the future of learning and teaching in the sciences.
