Memo:
RISE is an eight-week, asynchronous/synchronous online workshop (no on-campus requirement)
Now in its fifth cohort, RISE or Reframing Instruction for Success Everywhere is an award-winning faculty development online workshop experience that has already helped nearly 200 Clarkson faculty gain valuable skills and insights to be used when designing and delivering quality online courses. Participants experience learning from the student perspective when you are invited to connect with peers for idea sharing, peer-feedback and reflection as you learn applications for Clarkson’s educational technology tool set including Moodle, Zoom, Voicethread, Echo360, H5P and more. RISE builds a supportive community with connections that last long after the workshop ends.
Improve your own course with RISE
Working in your own course, faculty apply methods for improving student communication, implement industry-recommended best practices for online course design, and utilize time-saving student engagement strategies.
Lessons from RISE benefit all course modalities
Whether you are new to teaching, looking to venture into online instruction or simply interested in improving your teaching practice, RISE is a valuable professional development opportunity which offers lessons you can apply immediately in your own course.
RISE is produced and facilitated by Clarkson’s Teaching & Learning Corner team of online learning experts. When you complete RISE, you will receive a certificate of completion, and it is recorded in your Peoplesoft HR training record.
