The Office of Summer, Winter & Special Programs (OSWSP), in cooperation with DoIT and the Faculty Development Center, will again sponsor an “Alternate Delivery Workshop” for those interested in learning how to develop a hybrid class. If the course is to be offered during SU2009, OSWSP provides a one-time, $1,500 course development stipend as part of its Alternate Delivery Program (ADP).
The Hybrid Course Re-design workshop consists of two half-day sessions on pedagogy and good course design (1/15, Noon to 4 p.m.) and effective practices using instructional technology (1/16, 9 a.m. to Noon). Both sessions are required and will be held in Engineering, Room 023.
Following the face-2-face workshop sessions, participants who wish to receive the one-time, $1,500 ADP stipend will be required to present two “learning objects.” While the Hybrid workshop is NOT required to participate in the ADP, it has been shown to help faculty prepare to meet the ADP’s requirements. The ADP faculty presentations are open to the campus, especially departments of participating faculty, and will be videotaped for online viewing by future participants through UMBC’s iTunesU and UMBCTube video distribution sites. The ADP presentations are tentatively scheduled for 3/6 and 4/10.
