Learning Design
Using the latest research in teaching and learning, we empower education professionals in higher ed to design and facilitate holistic and inclusive learning experiences using the Open Hand model.
The Open Hand model increases student engagement while allowing instructors to discover a more satisfying way to teach—all while improving student learning.
Professional development comes and goes. It’s often just a one-time presentation, leaving faculty with little that is lasting.
In contrast, Open Hand offers a handy, memorable learning experience model that faculty can remember, apply, and practice at their own pace, making meaningful changes to their classes as needed, long after the training ends.
Professional development too often relies on the outdated act of information dumping.
Open Hand is different. It offers faculty a customized, relevant, and systematic training, providing first-hand experiences of learning strategies.
Professional Development often drains faculty who have busy professional and personal lives.
Open Hand energizes and inspires faculty by co-building a learning community to support their growth and creative mindset.
Open Hand offers a daring mash-up of experientially driven, fun, culturally responsive, & coaching-inspired trainings that are co-created with the participants.
In a recent popular book, Relationship-Rich Education: How Humans Drive Success in College, the authors conducted interviews from 16 undergraduate institutions, finding that retention of first-year and historically underrepresented students is dramatically increased when relationships between faculty, students, and communities are cultivated.
