Community-Engaged Learning (CEL) and Research, Scholarship & Creative Inquiry Intensive (RSCI) Course Designations

Meeting

Join us as we transition from a Friday lunch to a Tuesday breakfast in our Teaching Tuesdays for USUE Faculty. At 10am on November 5th we will discuss the High-Impact Practices of course designations including CEL & RSCI. CEL designated courses include an aspect of community-engaged teaching or research that enriches the learning experience, teaches civic responsibility, and strengthens communities. Students who take these classes develop civic awareness and leadership skills, are able to practically apply their course materials and professional skills to address a community need, and engage in meaningful classroom reflection and discussion. The RSCI designation (course attribute) indicates that the course involves research-based learning and hands-on training in fundamental practices of original knowledge creation in a discipline. The designation can apply to all sections of a course or an individual section and specific instructor. Breakfast Generously Provided by AVP Doug Miller.
