Deeper Learning Comes 
From Discovery

In this course, discovery learning is at the core, immersing students in engaging activities that encourage exploration and personal meaning-making. From a dynamic reading of a Shakespearean play, complete with interactive pop-ups and checkpoints, to a sportscaster-style parody that narrates a fictional presentation, students actively apply prior knowledge and context clues to deepen understanding. To ensure students feel supported, the course also provides rich, scaffolded guidance through targeted feedback that leads them toward deeper comprehension and critical thinking.
