UMBC HYBRID COURSE DESIGN WORKSHOP
(Click Here to Register)
Participants learn the principles of good course design and
apply them to a traditional, face-to-face (F2F) course that could be
delivered as a hybrid (part-online, part F2F) course. Using hybrid
delivery to demonstrate best practices of hybrid teaching, this workshop
is open to any UMBC instructor considering teaching a hybrid course in any
semester.
The workshop will also help meet the requirements for a
one-time course-redesign stipend through the Alternate Delivery Program
(ADP), which is sponsored by the Office of Summer, Winter, and Special
Programs (OSWSP).
Pre-requisites
- Bring a printed copy of your current syllabus for the course you
plan to redesign.
- Review and bring the “10 Planning Questions for Hybrid
Delivery.
- Read L. Dee Fink’s A Self Directed Guide to Designing
Courses for Significant Learning (33 pages) available at: http://www.ou.edu/idp/significant/selfdirected1.pdf
- Alternately, you can read Fink's 6-page summary
available at the IDEA Center at Kansas State University. We'll be working with the 33-page
version during the workshop, but the 6-page summary gives you a
good overview of Fink's approach.
