2003 Spring Track H
General Information
This year, FDI is offering alternative tracks that will meet during the
spring semester. By attending the sessions that comprise the spring tracks,
faculty can meet the participation requirements to receive computers.
By doing so, faculty will also receive their computer earlier than those
attending summer tracks. Enrollments in spring tracks will be limited.
General Description
This track provides a studio approach for advanced FDI participants who
are developing a large course enhancement or transformation project or
are considering such a project. Participants interested in this track
will meet with FDI staff during March 2003 to develop a plan of action.
This initial meeting will determine project feasibility, support needs,
and appropriate instructional sessions needed. Enrollment will be limited
to ensure a quality experience and adequate coverage of determined needs.
This workshop can be used as a companion to Tracks B and/or C, and academic
support staff and graduate teaching assistants may participate with faculty
as a 2-person project team.
Spring Alternative Track H Requirements
The spring alternative of the track will require participants to attend
one spring short course, provide a written project plan, and submit a
written project follow-up with demonstrated completion of plan to receive
a computer. Participants will work one-on-one with an FDI consultant to
assess their needs and develop an individual plan to meet the track requirements.
Below lists the required short course with description and dates offered.If
you plan to attend this spring alternative track, you must attend the
sessions listed below and fill out the Spring
