General Education: Course Mapping Workshop

Friday, December 2

Noon-1 p.m.
Faculty Development Studio, Guerrieri Academic Commons 221

Let us help you map your course objectives to meet General Education student learning outcomes through a course mapping process in this interactive hands-on workshop. Please bring your course syllabus and learning description/objectives for an existing course you wish to modify to meet General Education requirements. The process of course mapping allows you to plan your course using a course matrix for learning objectives, content, activities and assessments. We will help you prepare your new or existing course so you can create a proposal to send to the Undergraduate Curriculum Committee as the first step toward approval as a General Education 2024 course.
