What’s the LMC plan?
Beginning in the Fall, 2006 semester, faculty and staff are invited to participate in a Curriculum Planning Retreat that will focus on beginning the creation of learning communities of one type or another – from linked or paired classes to fully integrated courses such as Political Science with English. Workshops and conversations will be about strategies for integration of courses and linking assignments, designing assessments and syllabus exchanges. Teams will continue to refine and work together throughout the Fall semester in preparation for offering courses for the Spring, 2007 semester or later. Faculty compensation for Startup participation is $1000, and resulting “deliverables” for work in designing and implementing learning communities will come from the HSI Title V Grant.
