Partnering with instructors to create transformative experiences
Resources on Recentering Academics
The Bok Center team is available to review syllabi, help with assignment (re-)design, provide strategies for efficient and effective grading, help with the design and running of innovative multi-modal activities and assignments, and brainstorm active learning strategies.
