Adjusting to Challenges with Flexibility:
A Benefit to Students & Faculty


Facilitated by: Lucas Faculty Fellow, Elizabeth Weatherford

In a little more than two years, we have had a pandemic and devastating hurricane, both of which required faculty to make major adjustments to courses in a very short amount of time. While this is no doubt challenging, by adding flexibility to courses in these moments, we are prepared for future challenges to the world, the university, and to individual student. That flexibility may seem daunting, but this workshop will show faculty how adding flexibility is not only beneficial to students, but also to the faculty workload.

The Lucas Center for Faculty Development

The Lucas Center supports activities that help you grow as a teacher. Most of our topics and programs are the result of feedback from the FGCU faculty community perception of needs. Our Center offers creative learning experiences focused in the areas of teaching, learning, assessment and scholarship. Watch for e-mails announcing activities that may interest you. Our goal is to be a consistent source of support to faculty by providing activities that are engaging, inspiring, practical, and useful. Stop by to say hello and see our wonderful space in LIB 221, affectionately known as “The Living Room.”
