College and university administrators, department chairs, program directors, and others: Mark your calendars now to take a team to next summer’s Institute for Academic Innovation, to be held June 1–5, 2009. Achieving real educational innovation is challenging. You and your colleagues are faced daily with conflicting demands for time and resources, making it difficult to shape the meaningful curricular, policy, and faculty development initiatives so important to your institution’s continued viability and success. Since 1990, however, dozens of colleges and universities have found the impetus to achieve their planning and development goals at the Collaboration's Institute. In a unique and intensive four-day format, a team from your institution can complete a persuasive project plan to meet your goals while receiving expert guidance and assessment from a core faculty chosen for their expertise. This is your opportunity to build momentum on important educational initiatives, saving your institution precious time and resources. Team projects are guided and enhanced by the expertise of a core faculty available to provide an integrated package of interactive sessions and individualized consulting. In addition, the format of the Institute provides ample meeting time to allow your team to gain perspective on their work as part of a broader learning community of college educators. Team proposals will be due in March. More information will be available in November. |
