STEM Gateway
and members from the Course Redesign Advisory Council have selected three teams
to redesign their course to improve student success at UNM. The new cohort will be hard at work between
May 2014 and August 2015.
Math 116-
Pre-calculus and Trigonometry
The Math 116 course is a unique
redesign that combines two three credit math courses (Math 123- Trigonometry
and Math 150- Pre-Calculus) into a single 4 credit course thus speeding
students time to comlete their degree.
Biology 204- Plant Form
and Function Lecture and Biology 202L- Introductory Genetics
Redesigning two biology courses has
provided a special opportunity for team members to work across teams to not
only improve the course that they are redesigning but to also look at the
alignment of the curriculum throughout the program. The redesign may entail moving the course
into UNM’s active and collaborative teaching and learning spaces, the Learning Studios.
Final redesign proposals will be
posted at the STEM Gateway website in mid-August. Congratulations and best
wishes to the 2014-2015 Course Redesign Cohort!
