Blended Course Design Institute
April 2017 Newsletter, Center for Teaching and Learning @CT2
Announcing Our New Blended Course Design Institute
The Centers for Teaching and Technology (CT2) welcome applications from non-temporary faculty to participate in our first Blended Course Design Institute. This five-day institute will meet daily May 8-12 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Lunch will be provided.
During this intensive seminar, participants will use research-based principles to (re)design a course with significant online components. The seminar provides a collegial work environment where participants can receive feedback and support from colleagues at the CT2 and in other disciplines while being guided through the design of course components.
All accepted applicants will receive a copy of Kathryn E. Linder’s Blended Course Design Workbook and a small stipend to be awarded upon completion of the CDI.
The deadline for application is fast approaching! Be sure to submit your application before midnight on Friday, April 14. Selected participants will be notified no later than Friday, April 21. Click here to apply!
