Deep Learning
•Use of higher-order cognitiveand meta-cognitive skills to construct long-term understanding.•Intrinsic motivation.•Discovery rather than coverage.•Focus on what students do .•Challenge to the mental models of reality.•Student collaboration to learn.•Formulation of ideas in writing.

Teaching Process
•Vision– A vision of the possible or an experience of the
problematic.•Design– Background design•Enactment•Outcomes•Analysis

Learning outcomes• Constructive alignment
• Learning outcomes: both content and process skills stated in terms ofthe nature of the understanding.
• SOLO taxonomy

Analysis of course syllabi
•Is it a promising syllabus?•Is the course aligned? Why? Why not?•Do the learning outcomes aim at promoting deep learning? Why? Why not?•How can you reformulate the learning outcomes so as to promote deep learning?
