Overview

A novice learner's experience is often determined by situations encountered during a problem task. Only a small part of that task can be understood at one time. As students actively participate in becoming more expert , the explicit model of interactive-engagement techniques (EMIT) method enables them to acquire new concepts in ways that facilitate entry into the culture of expertise. Development of conceptual understanding of basic content and process in science includes active communication between the instructor and student as well as between students. Active participation through student model-building occurs as students engage in context-rich learning scenarios. The negotiation process helps them become explicitly aware of their own learning (meta-cognition) and actively involves them in building concepts from prior knowledge, folding in what is newly understood. As students are given an opportunity to evaluate and negotiate, they are interactively guided by the instructor--whose active participation cements the learning and instills competence and confidence for future learning opportunities.
