Agile Teaching Academy

The Agile Teaching Academy is an asynchronous course aimed at helping faculty design a highly adaptable course.  Agile Academy can be self-paced or done with a cohort.  Participants think through important design considerations over the course of four modules and explore questions such as:

  • How can I design course components for maximum flexibility, regardless of teaching format or location?

  • How can I organize my course for maximum student success?

  • What is a good assignment and assessment structure for a flexible course?

  • How can I align instructional activities and assessments to learning goals to ensure my students master important objectives?

  • Am I making teaching choices that include a wide range of student needs in a flexible environment?
