Hands-on learning in paleontology, and geology in general, is
fairly common practice. Students regularly use rocks, fossils, and
data in the classroom throughout their undergraduate career, but
they typically do it sitting in a chair in a lab. Kinesthetic
learning is a teaching model that requires students to be
physically active while learning. Students may be involved in a
physical activity during class or might be using their own bodies
to model some important concept. This Element briefly discusses the
theory behind kinesthetic learning and how it fits into a
student-centered, active-learning classroom. It then describes in
detail methods for incorporating it into student exercises on
biostratigraphy, assessment of sampling completeness, and modeling
evolutionary processes. Assessment data demonstrates that these
exercises have led to significantly improved student learning
outcomes tied to these concepts.
