New course team symposium grants available

The Blended and Flexible Learning Course Symposiums are designed to support course teams in thinking about how they are currently using blended and flexible learning strategies in their course, and how these might be enhanced, to optimise the learning and teaching experience.

Peter Mills gets busy in the Bachelor of
Agricultural Business Management
course symposium on Friday.

Grant recipients are awarded $2000 per course to develop a BFL course strategy which indicates how blended and flexible learning will be embedded into the student experience across the course. This strategy can be used by the team in its Course Review as per the CSU Degree Initiative (blended and flexible learning), and should be developed in consideration of the principles and perspectives approach to good practice in BFL, outlined in the BFL wiki. The course team will also identify examples of BFL strategies developed during and following the symposium for sharing with the CSU community.

To apply, check out our Course Team Symposium webfolio, where you'll find details of current symposiums, as well as how to apply in 2011. Applications close on August 31, 2011.
