Please be aware that due to academic schedule changes and the increase in summer activities, Public Safety will require parking permits to be displayed throughout the summer in 2014. Any 13-14 academic year permit will be acceptable. For example, if a student purchases a fall 2013 permit, that same permit can be used throughout the summer at no extra cost to the student. More information regarding summer 2014 will be available next spring.

New Chair Leadership Seminar

All new department chairs, division chairs, and program directors are invited to attend ACTC's third annual New Chair Leadership Seminar August 20-22. The New Chair Leadership Seminar is sponsored by the ACTC Academic Officers Council, so there is no cost for participants from Augsburg, Hamline, Macalester, St. Kate's, or St. Thomas.

The New Chair Leadership Seminar focuses on developing your leadership, helping you manage the daily responsibilities of chairing a department or program, and providing you with the resources you need, from books and local higher ed experts to a cohort of your peers.

While all departments have unique personalities, the successful ones share common cultural attributes: collaboration is natural, faculty and staff are energized, and the department advances its goals. As a new chair you are in a unique position to create and sustain such a culture. And we'll help you do it by focusing on two things: developing trust among your colleagues, and drawing out their innate strengths.

Integrated Course Design Workshop

All faculty are invited to participate in a workshop designed to enhance your instructional design skills and discover ways to incorporate online learning in your courses. It is particularly critical for Augsburg for Adults and graduate faculty who are creating "hybrid" courses for 2013-14.

The Integrated Course Design for Hybrid Learning is a hands-on workshop that introduces Augsburg's Moodle Template for developing your course in accordance with GAAC/AAC requirements and a Course Design Support site to provide additional detail and examples for Moodle applications. In this workshop, you will explore Fink's model for course design, which integrates situational factors, learning goals, learning activities, and assessment. We will also address how to choose face-to-face and online activities to create an engaging learning experience, provide direct instruction, and facilitate active, collaborative learning. The final workshops will be held on:

9-12 a.m., Thursday, August 8, OGC 100
