March & April Face-To-Face:
This spring MCC will be hosting a Performance Learning Systems & Rockford College graduate credit course, Designing Motivation for All Learners. Faculty enrolled in this course will "explore the various dimensions of motivation, beliefs in ability, and self-efficacy as they analyze learner orientations and learning preferences"--review the full syllabus , and then register for this great faculty development opportunity!
A graduate credit course opportunity right here at MCC this Spring 2013 |
March Online:
If you're unable to make the two weekend commitment for the PLS class, why not try the webcast course Differentiating for Diverse Learners sponsored by Advantage Discipline and Spring Arbor University? The webcast format is meant for easy viewing at times that are convenient for you!
Summer Face-To-Face:
And if you're more of a face-to-face student but are waiting for something to come up when you'll have more free time, Advantage Discipline and University of St. Francis are partnering for Relationships + Resources = Results: Education's Essential Equation this summer. The five day course will be held at the campus of University of St. Francis in Joliet, IL--yes, it's a trek down to Joliet, but 3 graduate credit hours are quite an incentive (and you can always use your $300 Professional Development travel money for a hotel...)
You can also check out rolling online courses offered through Connecting Link or Illinois Online Network from University of Illinois--and hopefully there's something for you!
