WID Institute for Course and Assignment Design (In-Person)
Thursday, May 18, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm
May 17 & 18, 9 am-3 pm
Jump start your fall course planning with the support of the WID Institute for Course and Assignment Design! In this redesigned 2-day format, we’ll reflect on your teaching priorities (particularly those connected to writing and information literacy) and outline meaningful assignments that support those priorities. You’ll connect with colleagues, build in support for your students and yourself, and end up with smart, sustainable course outlines, assignment plans, and syllabus revisions. We hope you’ll also leave feeling refreshed and inspired, with important work completed. While working on a WIL1 or WIL2 course isn’t required for Institute participation, we will pay special attention to the new Catamount Core and will have activities that support those developing general education courses. A short series of fall meetings will offer conveniently-scheduled opportunities to work on just-in-time topics during the semester.
Participants will receive two books, access to a variety of resource materials, and will be eligible for $500 in professional development funds. Coffee, tea, and lunch will be provided.
Registration is required; request your spot by April 30th via our registration form.
This year, the WID Institute will be facilitated by Susanmarie Harrington, Director of the Writing in the Disciplines Program; Daisy Benson, Library Associate Professor; Ingrid Nelson, Associate Professor of Geography & WID Faculty Associate, and Holly Painter, Lecturer of English & WID Faculty Associate. This program will be held IN-PERSON in 302 Howe Library.
