Course Design/ Hybrid Course Design Workshop
Course Design (morning only) and Hybrid Course Design (morning and afternoon) Workshop
Facilitated by the Faculty Development Center and Instructional Technology
Tuesday, August 16th, 10:30-12:00, Engineering 023
Lunch provided from 12:00-1:00 with faculty panel
Session continues from 1:00-2:30 for participants interested in hybridizing a course
Are you rethinking a course you’ll be teaching this fall? Or are you planning a new course soon? Or are you interested in finding more efficient ways to think about student assignments? Then join this discussion on ways to think about course design to be more efficient and effective in accomplishing the goals for your courses. During the session participants will 1) set expectations for student learning, 2) plan assignments and class activities that help students achieve the goals for their learning, and 3) design assessments (exams, projects, papers) that measure students’ achievement of course goals. Participants should bring a course syllabus or ideas for new courses to the session.
Lunch will be provided. The session continues after lunch for participants interested in hybridizing a course. Please indicate when you sign up for the session if you plan to stay for the session after lunch.
The afternoon session allows participants to apply the principles of good course design from the morning session to planning a hybrid course (part-online, part face-to-face). In this part of the workshop faculty will: 1) map out their course activities as in-class and on-line activities through the semester and 2) learn how to participate in the 2-week online session of this hybrid workshop that illustrates the technology tools that are effective in on-line teaching.
This two-part workshop will also help meet the requirements for a one-time course-redesign stipend through the Alternate Delivery Program (ADP), which is sponsored by both the Office of the Provost and the Office of Summer, Winter, and Special Programs (OSWSP).
Please sign up by August 10th and indicate in the comments section if you will be attending the afternoon session on designing a hybrid course.
