Workshop:  Intro to Hybridization

Wednesday, September 28, 0:45am-12:15pm, NVC 14-266                                                                            

Want to explore some of the different ways you could adapt your course to a hybrid format? This workshop is intended to help members of the faculty appreciate the many ways a course can be developed to create a hybrid course that is a good experience for the students and faculty and is worthy of the subject material. This workshop will present several hybrid course models and provide an overview of the basics of teaching a hybrid course including course structuring, assignment design, and assessment. During the workshop, faculty will have the opportunity to discuss how their courses could function in a hybrid model and will leave with a working knowledge of hybrid course models. RSVP to http://ctl.baruch.cuny.edu
