The Chronicle of Higher Education: How to Make Gen-Ed Curriculum Relevant (Vendor Webinar)
September 23 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
Reimagining general education is one of higher education’s clearest opportunities.
Students have long enrolled in general-education courses out of obligation rather than interest. That’s beginning to change. Vanderbilt University anchored its curriculum in shared questions about purpose and meaning, and a growing number of institutions are finding comparable success through their own approaches.
Join The Chronicle on Wednesday, September 23, at 2 p.m. ET for a virtual forum, “How to Make a Gen-Ed Curriculum Relevant.” Faculty members and academic leaders who have led gen-ed redesigns will discuss what worked, what didn’t, and what they would change.
Topics include:
Adjusting once students meet new requirements
Overcoming internal resistance and building lasting consensus
Staffing and preparing faculty for a new curriculum
