CCS and Teaching Info Literacy IR cohorts forming now

Two Instructional Redesign cohorts this fall will focus on Carmen Common Sense and Teaching Information Literacy. 

These cohorts can be stand-alone experiences or used as the foundation for an instructional redesign (IR) and assessment process culminating in the creation of an Instructional Redesign portfolio that may be eligible for compensation.

 

Teaching Information Literacy Instructional Redesign Cohort 

Asynchronous delivery beginning on Monday, Oct. 19 via CarmenCanvas with optional virtual cohorts on Oct. 19, Nov. 2 and Nov. 16 at 3 p.m.

This professional learning experience will provide guidance for strategically and purposefully integrating information literacy into courses.

Participants will be expected to complete one or two course modules per week (approximately two hours per module) and are encouraged to participate in at least one of the virtual cohorts. In each module, participants will complete activities designed to help them build an action plan for integrating information literacy into an instruction session, course or program.
