II Workshop
The first of two Interdisciplinary Studies Workshops organized by the ISP's II Subcommittee will be held on Friday, October 28 from 2-3:30pm.
Workshop will be "INTERDISCIPLINARY TEACHING." Participants will offer reflections on & discuss their experiences in II-courses with respect to Course Development, Syllabus Development & Assignment Planning as way of contributing to a Subcommittee's current document in progress, "II@5."
We look forward to hearing from instructors who are currently teaching II courses as well as those who have made contributions in the past.
The Workshop will also provide faculty currently developing II courses with an opportunity to inquire about INTERDISCIPLINARY TEACHING in II.
