Despite research demonstrating the ineffectiveness of the "banking model" of learning (i.e., an expert instructor transmits knowledge which is received by blank-slated learners), many educators continue to follow this model. Participants will receive and co-construct instructional ideas based on developmental theory, experiential educational strategies, Kohlb's learning cycle, and methods for engaging diverse learners through constructivist theory applied to a variety of teaching styles in a way that makes counselor education more meaningful, personal, and effective!
