For example, is it a first-year seminar or an upper-level course? Does it typically enroll majors or non-majors? What is the maximum enrollment for the course? Does this course satisfy any Gen Ed requirements for the University? Proposal NarrativePlease state the learning objectives for your course.*This should include 1-5 strong learning objectives related to your course discipline, which do not have to be related to the maker/design elements of your course proposal. For tips on how to write strong learning objectives, see this page from UNC-Charlotte. To see examples from previous Makerspace FLC courses, click here. Please describe your proposed maker-integrated course project(s).*This should include how the integration of making or fabrication activities will support the learning objectives you listed above, and how your course-specific content will inform the choices that students make as part of their design and making process. It's okay to have more than one idea, iterating and polishing your ideas is part of participation in the Makerspace FLC! To see examples from previous Makerspace FLC courses, click here. How will you provide structure for students during the design process?*This could include milestones or smaller activities you might want to incorporate as part of the overall project. It can also include any relevant experience you have that will contribute to students' success in navigating the design and making process. For more information on what the design process generally looks like in a makerspace course, head to this link. To see examples of questions to consider when scoping makerspace projects, click here. Pick one of your learning objectives, and describe how you might measure it within your proposed course project.*What will it look like when students are meeting that objective, and what does it look like when students aren't meeting that objective? How will you know, and how will you communicate that to the student through assessment? To see examples of rubrics from previous Makerspace FLC courses, click here. Letters of SupportLetter from Chair*Please attach your letter of support from your department chair endorsing the proposed course and the plan to offer it in the 2021-2022 academic year (including summer sessions), as well as plans for beyond the first year’s offering.

This should include the following language: “I will participate in a faculty learning community (FLC) that will meet eight to ten times in the 2020-2021 academic year to share ideas, problems and solutions with colleagues and professional staff related to the integration of making in my course. I will prototype a version of my course project to better understand my students’ design and making experience. I will participate in assessment activities, including: surveys/interviews/focus groups about my experience with the learning community; facilitating student surveys about their experience with BeAM; and permitting student work to be evaluated by external reviewers. I will participate alongside my students in one of the QEP Making and Research Expo events during the 2021/2020 academic year. In addition, I am willing to share what I have learned with faculty in a future FLC or seminar.” Max. file size: 10 MB. Δ
