Curriculum Design Institute

Curriculum Design Institute

The Summer Curriculum Design Institute (July 7-11, 9am-5pm) offers an intensive and collaborative learning experience for graduate student instructors. Participants engage in workshops led by experienced educators to develop innovative and effective teaching strategies. Through hands-on activities and peer feedback sessions, instructors will refine their teaching plans for this summer and beyond. By the end of the institute, participants will emerge with a well-rounded understanding of curriculum development principles ready to implement in their classrooms and syllabi. The Curriculum Design Institute will last a week, with morning instruction from GradSuccess staff and afternoon peer review and independent consultations tailored to the respective courses you are preparing. The CDI Application is due Monday, June 16th @ 8 AM PT.
