Cotillion 3

Well-designed courses that integrate content, challenge students, and provide rich learning experiences can have a profound impact on student learning. Can courses be designed this way? What are the different models for integrated courses? Are there general principles used to design integrated courses focused on improving student learning? How do teachers collaborate in developing a course with shared grading and classroom management systems? What might co-teaching look like in an integrated course? Teachers and administrators are invited to attend this session to learn more about the process of developing an integrated course incorporating PBL principles and practices.
