This paper discusses the application of innovative methods of instruction to a learning practice in higher education. Learning principles and other aspects of course design are highlighted to provide a foundation emphasizing the role of the instructor, the need for learner activity, and other aspects of the cognitivist and socio-cultural approaches to learning. Elements of course design and delivery emphasize the importance for the learner to experiment with the course material. Outcomes suggest that granting students the freedom to take leadership roles within the course allows for more shared leadership and learning within a positive and challenging environment.
