Course Design Institute - Day 1
´óÏ㽶ÊÓƵ's Course Design Institute (CDI) provides a foundation in integrated course design approach rooted in student-centered teaching and learning.
´óÏ㽶ÊÓƵ's Course Design Institute (CDI) provides a foundation in an integrated course design approach that is rooted in student-centered teaching and learning. Participants gain exposure to current theory of course design and, with support from a cohort of peers and guidance from CDI facilitators, apply evidence-based approaches to the designs of their own courses. This process can be used to develop a new course or redesign an existing course. We're looking forward to working with you!
During CDI, you will:
- Apply evidence-based principles of learning to the design of a course
- Write course learning outcomes and learning outcomes for at least one course unit
- Create an assessment plan to evaluate student progress toward the course learning outcomes
- Consider learning activities and assignments that address the course objectives.
CDI follows a flipped format, in which you work through asynchronous content (short videos, readings, exercises) in Canvas independently before attending live sessions with a cohort of faculty peers. Live sessions are comprised of interactive workshops, small group discussion with other faculty, and 1-on-1 feedback from facilitators.
The estimated time for completing the asynchronous content is 3-4 hours. Instructors teaching curricular academic courses at ´óÏ㽶ÊÓƵ are invited to apply to participate in the live institute by completing the form below. Instructors of non-academic courses and trainings are encouraged to pursue the CDI self-study option by .
Each live institute is limited to 15 participants. Priority consideration will be given to applicants whose courses will run soonest.
This live institute will take place in The LINK (Berry 180) December 2 and 4, 2025 from 9:00 am-3:00 pm. The deadline to apply is November 3 at noon.
