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 a.m. to noon, Thursday, August 8, OGC 100
Please RSVP to ctl@augsburg.edu

Khomson Kerati-thamkul, Chris Devet, and Katya Moghadam are presenting their summer research work done with Drs. Vivian Feng and Michael Wentzel in the chemistry department.
The Summer Undergraduate Research Expo is an exposition of the research accomplishments of undergraduate from all over the country who come to the University of Minnesota each summer to perform research in the labs of MRSEC and College of Science and Engineering faculty members.
