“The Let Me Learn Process® works! It affects life more profoundly by enabling us to learn effectively. Whether I am working with blue collar workers, disaffected youth, at-risk community college students or doctoral students, I have been able to use the Let Me Learn Process® to help those who are lost, confused, overwhelmed in the process of learning.”
–Robert B. Kottkamp, Professor Emeritus, Hofstra University




What Will I Learn and How Can I Use it in My Classroom?

FOR THOSE NEW TO THE LML Process®:

  • You will learn to understand yourself as a learner and
  • How that affects what you do in instruction.

  • Introduce yourself to your students and the emphasis on learning that will occur in the class.
  • Analyze the make up of your class (as learners)
    • You’ll learn how to put students into groups;
    • You’ll learn alternative ways of presenting the same assignment;
    • You’ll learn how to create your own learning communities; and
    • You’ll gain an awareness of strategies to help students in their use of the written word.

FOR EXPERIENCED PRACTITIONERS OF THE LML Process®:

  • You will learn to understand yourself as an instructor, mentor, evaluator as well as
  • Understand the learners who are to wrap their minds around your course subject matter

After this activity-based workshop, you will be able to:

Why should I attend this event?

The Let Me Learn Process®, identified by John Gardner in 2007 as “the next ‘big idea’ for enabling student success” is an advanced learning system which relies upon

  • a powerful theoretical basis of learning and metacognition,
  • a set of practical tools, and
  • fifteen years of research and application in higher education that have yielded a documented record of improving student learning, retention, and persistence.





The Let Me Learn Process enables educational professionals to focus on a student’s learning behaviors.  Combined with benchmark assessments, instructors are better able to provide support.
–State of NJ Department of Education, March 2009
