Areas of focus
Instructional modalities
We continue to study and discuss different ways to deliver instruction, including face-to-face, hybrid, hyflex, remote, and online instruction methods.
Use of classroom space
We continue to review room availability, capacity, and features. We assist the Registrar's Office as they work to assign instructional space with a view to meeting the instructional, health, and safety needs of instructors and students.
Experiential learning
We have developed several protocols to support experiential learning such as laboratory experiences, performances, field work, and internships.
