This course will become read-only in the near future. Tell us at community.p2pu.org if that is a problem.
The purpose of this P2PU study group is to create an open space for interested University of Wisconsin Parkside faculty and staff to learn about the proposed UW System competency-based Flexible Degree Option. Participants in this group will have a better understanding of what competency-based degrees look like and the external social and economic forces driving universities, including the UW System, to develop such degrees. UW Parkside faculty and staff are welcome to participate using their uwp.edu email account. Postings from real people with real names are welcome. (Anonymous or pseudonymous comments will not be posted by the moderator.)
Please review the draft of the project charter for the flexible degree option exploratory group.
Post your questions, comments, suggested revisions to the project charter here.
An additional question:
How can we ensure that that appropriate types if learner support are in place (through our campus, through Extension, and/or at System level)?
Also:
Will it be possible to cultivate--and perhaps also lead--learning communities such that the very important online learning concept of social presence maintained in the learning environment?
To question number 15, I would add, "Will it affect our AACSB International accredited business programs?"
