THE EVOLUTION OF A MOVEMENT: Orchestrating a Campus-Wide Learning-Centered Course Redesign Project

From Declining by Degrees to Academically Adrift, everywhere we turn the call for reform in higher education has been loud and clear. One of the most wicked problems confronting administrators seems to be a demand for faculty development which inspires faculty to alter their methods in order to optimize student success and achievement of learning outcomes, while also promoting student responsibility. Increasing evidence suggests a shift toward a learning-centered paradigm as an appropriate solution. Using our experience orchestrating a campus-wide learning-centered course redesign, we combine critical components of the leadership, course-redesign, and learning-centered literature to demonstrate how academic leaders can effect change, as well as create a receptive environment in which the seeds for transformation can take root.

Train the Trainer - December 2013

Train the Trainer has been significantly updated and also enriched with new multimedia. Participants will be expected to download both demo versions of adaptive software or free support software and spend part of almost every lesson actually acquiring hands-on experience.

Computer technology has the potential to provide the most level learning space and working space in history for people with disabilities. However, many users arrive on campus or at work with inadequate training on this technology. Either the K-12 system failed to provide them with the appropriate tools and training, or they may have only recently received the disability. They will need help in identifying the technology that will enable them to achieve more independence and need training to use it effectively. Your institution will need to have someone equipped to provide this training. The information in Train the Trainer will provide a staff person with the know-how to provide this support.

The North American Council for Staff, Program, and Organizational Development | An Affiliate AACC Council

The North American Council for Staff, Program and Organizational Development (NCSPOD) was formed in 1977 with assistance from the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education  and is an affiliate council of the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC). The vision for the organization came from faculty, staff, and program development practitioners in community colleges across the country. They had a mutual need for developing their knowledge and skills for sharing information and experiences in a developing field. They felt this could best happen through a formal network as an association would give credibility to the staff, program, and the organizational development movement. 

Our mission is to sustain an international community of engaged professionals by sharing expertise and resources to advance faculty, staff and organizational effectiveness. NCSPOD, Inc. is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors established through an approved set of organizational by-laws.  Our activities and programs are broadly focused upon staff, faculty, program, and organizational development within higher education and especially within community colleges. However, our doors are open to anyone who shares our passion and identifies with our mission. Our values include authentic relationships, community and networking, collaboration, excellence and effectiveness, and inclusion.

5th Annual Teaching & Learning Colloquium

5th Annual Teaching & Learning Colloquium 

Friday, April 12, 2013

8:30 am - 4:30 pm

Keynote Speakers 

Dr. Tracy Penny Light Documenting the Self:  Integrating Learning with ePortfolios

Dr. Vijay Kumar Open Education on the Move:  New Pathways for Learning

Stony Brook's 5th annual Teaching and Learning Colloquium promises to be a day of innovative interaction on the future of education. In A New Paradigm for Undergraduate Education, Barr and Tagg (1995) described a paradigm shift in education from teacher-centered instruction to student-centered learning.  This concept is still relevant almost 20 years later as technology has become integral to the teaching and learning process, forcing us to ask ourselves: Is the Learning Paradigm experiencing its own shift?  How prepared are we to teach in this age of digital global learning? 

Join us for a day of innovative exchange and conversation, from MOOCs to ePortfolios to innovative teaching and learning strategies with technology. You are invited to participate in the day's interactive sessions, where your input and ideas will be vital to how we map the future of teaching and learning.
