Professor Brummett and Professor Hughes presented the keynote address on their department’s course redesign, followed by workshops by Chuck Paine: "Teaching Composition with Genres" and Jess Alberts: “Negotiating Conflict”. In the afternoon’s breakout sessions, each Faculty Advisor presented on their MyLab; the day concluded with a panel discussion.
“I very much enjoyed the event and hope to be able to incorporate labs into some of the disciplines I oversee.”
--Donna Alden, Dept. Chair, Doña Ana Community College
“Some of our instructors here at CSN do use MyCompLab and MyWritingLab, and it was nice to see what those programs looked like and how they can be used as an aid to instruction. Now that we do have a general overview, we would love to have someone visit our campus and discuss the possible benefits to our specific teaching and learning environment.”
--Professor Levia DiNardo Hayes, Assistant Department Chair – English, College of Southern Nevada
“The event on Friday was wonderful. I especially enjoyed Charlie Paine's presentation on teaching composition with genres -- and I picked up a copy of the text he wrote with Rick Johnson Sheehan and will consider it for fall. I am looking at getting MyCompLab with that text.”
--Shavawn M. Berry, Writing Programs Instructor & Barrett, The Honors College , Disciplinary Faculty, Arizona State University
