CELT invited faculty to Coffee & Conversation on November 20.
Topic: The Graphic Syllabus. We discussed this book by Linda B. Nilson: The Graphic Syllabus and the Outcomes Map: Communicating Your Course.

If you missed this Brown Bag Faculty Dialogue, you can still view the video and take advantage of the supplemental materials.
To access the 20-Minute Mentor video “How can I create effective mini-lectures?” go to my.cuw.edu and look for the CELT channel under the faculty tab. The power point slides, transcript and supplemental resources are also there. One of the handouts is about effective discussion that also applies to classroom face-to-face discussions.
