Master Teacher Carol Springer Sargent's Key Takeaway: Innovative College Teaching

Dr. Carol Springer Sargent (Mercer University): “My most popular technique to this day was the result of a learning experiment with a struggling student. … I asked him if he would just give me the commercial breaks during Law and Order. (his favorite show) He agreed. I created three-minute coaching videos that taught a core idea in each video. I focused on one foundational idea that, if missed, would make the rest of the chapter impossible. The ‘just three minutes’ was a wild success.”
