Assignments and Project Ideas
19 Teachable Content: Student Examples
While writing my open textbook on Consumer Behaviour, I invited students to create Teachable Content that could be re-used in our course. My intentions were to give students a range of options to engage with the content and begin to recognize in themselves the role of “expert learner.” Their projects were insightful, creative, and diverse: they reflected our course concepts through their own lived experiences which made the material more relevant and useful to future learners.
With their consent, I am featuring some of these Teachable Content projects which were created by students using H5P. Unfortunately, these were not created to be fully accessible: I would advise instructors in the future to teach students about accessibility when they are contributing to the public domain creating open-licensed materials. I regret that I did not have this top of mind when I engaged my students on these wonderful, yet limiting, initiatives.
