February is Re-Run Season at MCC
We had a variety of great workshops to offer on Faculty Development Day in January. But there were a half dozen workshops and only one of you! So if you had a hard time deciding between a couple workshops, don't worry--you've got another chance this semester.
Here's the list of workshops from FD Day that we're re-running in February:
And look ahead on the Professional Development calendar for more workshops scheduled for March and April!

Happy New Year, faculty!

Tips on using the Prezi--click on the "Full Screen" button in the lower-right hand corner, and use your mouse to click and drag to somewhere new in the presentation, or scroll in and out for zooming in on text.

And remember that if you can't make a workshop because of a scheduling conflict, let us know what day and time might work better for you!

This Fall We're Mapping it Back to Pedagogy
Last year MCC's Curriculum and Academic Policy Council (CAPC) finalized our Excellence in Teaching guidelines, which are informed by strength and ability in subject matter, pedagogy, assessment, and professionalism.
This Fall 2013 Faculty Development Day has an offering of fourteen MCC faculty led breakout sessions, each of which can be mapped back to strength and ability in pedagogy.
And now, here are the Fall 2013 Faculty Development Day Program (which you've received via e-mail and will be receiving via USPS) and the accompanying curriculum maps:
Check back in early August for the remaining curriculum maps, and have a relaxing few weeks before the Fall semester begins!

Graduate Credit Opportunities This Spring and Summer
If you're looking for some graduate level coursework--face-to-face or online--check out some terrific offerings detailed below.
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!
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!
