Overview
According to student feedback in recent years, there is a definite need to provide more flexibility in the regular Bachelor courses in the ARTS. Students often have trouble attending as much as is required for completing the courses. Offering the students the option of working & learning remotely would reduce their stress and day-time workloads.
Similar to the LCA-1008 project (from Fall 2018), the project should be completed in one semester, Fall 2019. The idea will be to pilot the materials already in Period III (Jan 7 – Feb 22, 2020) and collect student feedback. Based on this feedback, the course materials will be updated and fixed for trial in Period IV and V.
There will be three sessions that will be replaced, representing about 1/3 of the contact teaching in the course. This includes a session with an interactive workshop on Multimodality and PowerPoint slide design; a session on job interviews which features among other activities, mindmapping career interests; and a session which will be shifted to fully online with digital tools for discussion leading.
