    1. Find the group work behind the Jamboard link on approaches to learning. Reflect on the groups' outcomes. What would you add to the "posters"? (Write ½-1 pages on this topic)
       
       
    2. With reference to the three levels of thinking about teaching, how can different teachers affect how students learn (surface or deep approach to learning)? Do you see any problems if a student uses only the surface approach or only the deep approach to study in all of their courses? How can students cope with learning subjects in the given amount of time? Address all of the questions in this topic. (Write 1–2 pages on this topic)
