Integrated Course Design Workshop

All faculty are invited to participate in a workshop designed to enhance your instructional design skills and discover ways to incorporate online learning in your courses. It is particularly critical for Augsburg for Adults and graduate faculty who are creating "hybrid" courses for 2013-14.

The Integrated Course Design for Hybrid Learning is a hands-on workshop that introduces Augsburg's Moodle Template for developing your course in accordance with GAAC/AAC requirements and a Course Design Support site to provide additional detail and examples for Moodle applications. In this workshop, you will explore Fink's model for course design, which integrates situational factors, learning goals, learning activities, and assessment. We will also address how to choose face-to-face and online activities to create an engaging learning experience, provide direct instruction, and facilitate active, collaborative learning. The final workshops will be held on:

9-12 a.m., Thursday, August 8, OGC 100

RSVP to ctl@augsburg.edu

Last Week of Summer in the Writing Lab

Tutors in the Writing Lab will continue working on summer students' and researchers' papers through SS II, ending on August 8. Because of a reduction in library hours, the WL schedule had to be adjusted slightly. These are the hours for the last week:

Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday between 4:30 - 7:00 p.m. (NOTE THIS CHANGE).

The Lab is located on the street level of Lindell Library, just left of the circulation desk. Tutors are available to help any Augsburg student with any writing assignment.

The Writing Lab will reopen for the next academic year on Monday, September 16. Stay tuned!
