CFE Course Design Institute
December 14, 2020, 3:30 AM - 7:30 AM EST
Our Course Design Institute (CDI) is a structured sequence of workshops, activities, and working sessions held over a 3-day period (12 contact-hours overall) where a small cohort of instructors—generally between six and 14 colleagues—use the “backward design” approach to develop their upcoming courses. The December 2020 CDI will be offered remotely using Zoom and Microsoft Teams on Monday (12/14), Wednesday (12/16), and Friday (12/18) from 8:30 AM – 12:30 PM each day. Please apply by 9:00 PM on Friday, November 20th, for full consideration.
