Blue Ribbon – Ramp Up Course Development
- Initially conceived as a scale up starting small, has not continued since last summer. Revisit this for Summer 2024
- Drs. Lazarevic & Castaneda Rios – Blue Ribbon process immensely helpful – $2,500 stipend
- Dr. Dana – let’s begin recruiting for a new cohort; explore funds
- Dr. Lazarevic – “Course Blueprint Process” Use of master blueprint shell – a certified course that can be lightly iterated upon utilizing a single shell across sections.
- Sequencing – very difficult to do many at one time; many 5-10; Dr. Rios – a single course can have a trickle down effect as instructors go through process/ informs practice
Other Items
