What is Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT)

Chapter 14
Integrating Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT): An Effective Tool for Providing Equitable Opportunity in Higher Education
Represents a pedagogical strategy encompassing a three stage-dimension framework consisting of (1) purpose—why we assign specific work to our students, (2) task—what we want them to do and (3) criteria—how do we want to evaluate them. The instructors are required to make small adjustments to their course activities to significantly improve the entire learning processes of their students resulting in better student performances, graduation completion, and retention rates.

Abstract
Transparency in Learning and Teaching (TILT) demands educators inform their students what, where, and why they are expected to learn certain subjective content and how they will be assessed. This allows students to understand the relevance and usefulness of the subjective content covered in their classrooms and what they should do to perform better academically. Yet providing such detailed specifications can restrict students' abilities to be original, critical, and imaginative. Students are no longer able to think out of the box and go beyond current knowledge domains to create new information to transform societies. This chapter integrates the ideologies of Foucault's disciplinary power to deconstruct the totalitarian learning aspect hidden within the three-dimension transparency framework of TILT and how it may hinder the growth and development of students within higher education institutions.
