Metateaching has been defined as thinking about teaching (Timpson 1999), but if metacognition is thinking about thinking, and a meta-language is a language about languages, then metateaching is in fact teaching about teaching. If we combine this with notions of signature pedagogies and the idea that we should be modeling what we are teaching, then what does this mean at the graduate level? \u00a0 It means that graduate instructors should themselves be modeling what they are teaching. Wouldn\u2019t signature pedagogy in education be one that actually implements the theories and models being studied in order to teach those same theories and models? Shouldn\u2019t it be one that employs experimental designs and invites the students (most of who are teachers) to examine the course design as it\u2019s being taught? Wouldn\u2019t it make sense to have the students have input into the design and\/or teaching? \u00a0 This presentation will examine the common approach to teaching graduate level education courses &#8211; the seminar &#8211; and suggest an alternate approach that uses the theories and models being taught and where the teaching methodology matches the kind of work the participants will do when they graduate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class='wp_likes' id='wp_likes_post-4798'><a class='like' href=\"javascript:wp_likes.like(4798);\" title='Like' ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/minkhollow.ca\/beckerblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-likes\/images\/like.png\" alt='' border='0'\/><\/a><span class='text'><b>3<\/b> people like this post.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class='like' ><a href=\"javascript:wp_likes.like(4798);\">Like<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='unlike' ><a href=\"javascript:wp_likes.unlike(4798);\">Unlike<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Approximate Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> &lt; 1<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minute<\/span><\/span>Here&#8217;s another fairly recent talk, also from CNIE 2014.
