TILT
The transparency in learning and teaching (TILT) method established by The Transparency in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education project (TILT Higher Ed), explicitly focuses on how and why students are learning course content, concepts, and skills in a particular way, and how they will use that learning after college. According to TILT Higher Ed (n.d.), tilting your assignments helps students buy into the short- and long-term goals of their work. It also allows them to efficiently focus their (cognitive) attention on learning and achieving performance targets, rather than on understanding assignment instructions (TILT Higher Ed).
