Excellence is earned, not prescribed. So many of our rubric-driven students are just 'checking boxes' instead of actually learning. How can we break the zombie mold and get into creative, self-reliant modalities? This session focuses on methods to increase student autonomy and personal responsibility through creative syllabi, course design, and incentive models. Participants will discuss and collaboratively brainstorm active learning activities, assignments, and proof-of-knowledge exercises that push students to demonstrate their highest level of achievement, not simply default to what's expected of them.

In order for attendees to personally track their current registrations and attendance at certificate of completion workshops and events, the Center for Teaching Excellence requires that all registrants create an account in our registration system and login to register for all workshops.

If you have an existing training account with the Division of Human Resources, Office of Organizational and Professional Development, you do not need to create an account. You can login using your HR training username and password. By logging in to register for CTE events, your complete training record for both CTE and HR trainings will be available with a single account and login.
