SUMMARY:Workshop: Solving the Puzzle: Engaging Non-Majors in Mason Core Courses
DESCRIPTION:Register Here | Facilitator: Laura Poms\nHow could teaching a Mason Core course possibly be any different from teaching a major course? There are an array of reasons\, resulting in some interesting instructional challenges. By definition\, the majority of students in Mason Core courses are non-majors. What does this mean for student engagement\, course content coverage\, scaffolding\, assignment design and even student support? This workshop focuses on the differences between teaching a major course and one with the broader learning outcomes associated with a Mason Core course. Whether this is your first time teaching a Mason Core course or you are a seasoned veteran\, this workshop will help you develop new strategies for increasing student engagement and success while better managing the additional workload that often comes with teaching a general education course. \nBy completing this workshop in addition to the High Impact Practices Cluster Parts 1 & 2\, you can earn the Level 1: Certified Mason Core Instructor Certification. \n\n* Adding to your calendar will not register you for the event; please register using the link above.
