How do you design a new course that will be compelling to students? How do you refresh an existing course? What opportunities does the new General Education designation, Culture and Difference, offer to faculty as they propose new courses? At this workshop, we will explore ways to organize a course around questions, problems, and puzzles, and write a course description that makes clear what’s at stake in taking the course. Lunch will be served. RSVP Required.
