When
This is an intensive, cohort-based mini-course that will enable instructors to rapidly adapt their course for the new GE program. Upon completion of the Live-Online, instructors will submit their Course Proposal Form to the University Wide General Education Committee (UWGEC) for rapid batch review. The Quick Start Live-Online will encompass two full weeks (M-F) with synchronous (~1hr/day) and asynchronous (~1hr/day) daily engagements. Asynchronous course components will follow the same modules as the self-paced Quick Start with participants engaging in synchronous, collaborative sessions to workshop their course transition elements with the active support of faculty and staff from the GE Office.
Please contact Katie Southard(link sends e-mail) to register. Courses will be capped at 30 participants.
