The Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) is going to make it easy for you to plan ahead and create a student-friendly course to promote student learning. In this short winter faculty preparation course, they will provide you with hands-on support from our CETL Instructional Designers including,
- Create an effective and inclusive syllabus to guide your students and your instruction
- Refine your course learning objectives, align them to assessments and learning activities
- Plan your semester with inclusion in mind
- Connect, collaborate, and share ideas with other instructors
All sessions will be held virtually via Zoom, so keep your pajamas and slippers on! The retreat is formatted with two structured workshop days and two independent workdays:
Monday, January 10, 9:00 am – 2:30 pm: Structured Workshop on Learning Objectives and Syllabus Design
Tuesday, January 11: Independent Workday (Revising Learning Objectives and Syllabus)
