Course Redesign Projects
Summer 2015 implementation:
- HIST 1010, World Civilizations I and HIST 1020, World Civilizations II (James Guilfoyle) – Dr. Guilfoyle developed online versions of these general education courses.
Fall 2015 implementation:
- PSY 1010, Introduction to Psychology (Amanda Clark, Libby Byers, and Svetlana Chesser) – This team worked together to develop an online version of this popular general education course.

Course enhancements were made through the use of technology and an active learning environment within relatively large sections of the course.
- CLAS 1200, Legendary Rome: Epic Founders, Wicked Emperors, Saintly Martyrs (Joshua Davies and Kristen Knopick) – This team developed a new course for general education and is offering it both as a face-to-face and online class.
- EDUC 3500, Teaching Strategies and Materials in Elementary Grades Mathematics (Debbie Cantrell) – Professor Cantrell redesigned this course using the supplemental model to involve more active learning strategies to engage the students.
- ENGR 2460, Mechanics and Materials (Mbakisya Onyango, Ron Goulet, Joseph Owino) – This team incorporated the flipped classroom model (supplemental) into this lecture course so that students view videos and take quizzes before coming to class and spent class time working on problems.
