Finding the time, energy, and inspiration to develop a new course or to re-design an existing course is a challenge for faculty. Join us for either a four-day, face-to-face workshop or an on-line workshop through which you will make significant progress toward designing or re-designing an effective and innovative undergraduate course in the geosciences.

The course design workshop pushed me into new territory for teaching and learning, and I have reconstructed for the better my teaching for all my classes.
Before I attended the workshop I considered myself an effective teacher. But I had the focus all wrong. Now I see how effectively my students can learn.
Conveners:
- Barbara Tewksbury (Hamilton College)
- Heather Macdonald (College of William and Mary)
