Fall 2016 Hybrid Makeover Workshop Application
The purpose of this workshop is to share best practices in creating hybrid courses with CHSS faculty in hopes that we can 1) work together as a college to improve overall quality of hybrid course offerings, 2) increase the membership in a CHSS culture of knowledge and high expectations regarding our college’s hybrid offerings, and 3) add to the high quality hybrid offerings in the college.
In addition to this workshop open to all CHSS faculty, several departments have also proposed to hold their own, discipline specific hybrid workshops. The information below relates only to the college-wide workshop.
Note: Faculty who have completed the Build a Web Course Workshop or Skills Update Workshop and built a hybrid or online course are not eligible to “double dip” and build/revise the samecourse number for the Hybrid Workshop.
