Guided support series for revising or developing program learning assessment plans

In the fall 2023 semester and the spring 2024 semester, CTAL will host a 3-part series of workshops to support UD faculty who are revising or developing program learning assessment plans. They are based on programs that have been and are run by CTAL staff. Although these sessions will support teams of faculty, they will be attended by one or two representatives of each team who will then work with their teammates (a “train-the-trainer” model).

Self-guided modules are also available for faculty who cannot attend these events or prefer to work on their own pace.

For faculty engaged in revising or creating program educational goals, we also have self-guided modules.

Fall 2023 guided support series

This is a series of 3 one-hour meetings spaced about 4 weeks apart. Participants are expected to commit to:

1. Form a team of faculty members committed to completing this work this semester. These teams are typically 3-5 members. This may be a new team or it may work well to work with an existing group such as a curriculum committee. Diversity of experience, knowledge, and viewpoint are critical elements in a successful team.
2. Engage in meaningful work during the three weeks between each one-hour session.
3. Send one or two representatives from the team to each of the one-hour sessions. In these sessions, we will provide materials, collegial advice, feedback, and opportunities to practice to prepare them for the work that should occur after that particular meeting.

The three one-hour meetings are scheduled for:

  • Friday, September 15, at 3:00
  • Friday, October 13, at 3:00
  • Friday, November 10, at 3:00

    We are open to meeting in-person or online and we will decide based on responses to the application.

    Applications are requested by Monday, September 4. We will notify you by Friday, September 8, if your application has been accepted. (The selection process is not competitive; we are only unsure how many programs will apply and want to ensure that we have the resources to fully support all of the participants.)
