Course Enhancement Workshops
The Course Enhancement workshops offer three opportunities to think ahead and develop your future courses with writing in mind. Each event is offered twice in the same month and conveniently held online. Once registered, you will receive a link to your event, along with event details.
Because these workshops are designed for staff and faculty looking to further integrate writing into their courses, we ask that attendants come prepared with an assignment in mind and materials to update and rework. Also note, the Course Enhancement workshops are designed to lead faculty through reworking an assignment from instructions to assessment, attendees are welcome to attend just one.
