When?	May 14th (9:00am-5:30pm) and May 15th (9:00am-3:30pm) - Agenda
Where?	Stetson University, Carlton Union Building, Stetson Room Travel Campus Map Hotel
What?	Stetson University will be hosting a course redesign institute titled, "Building Capacity for Incorporating Academic Service-Learning in STEM Course Development" During this institute, faculty from Stetson and from colleges and universities around the region will redesign their courses in STEM and STEM-related fields to include community engaged learning as a major component of the course.
Who?	Any faculty in Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) and related disciplines (including Community Health and Environmental Studies) who are interested in either redesigning an existing course or developing a new course that will incorporate the principles and strategies of high-quality community-based instruction.
How?	During the 2-day institute, participants will be revising their syllabi through a hands-on, multi-step process. It is critical that participants are available for the full-institute. Participants are required to bring a laptop or tablet computer (Wi-Fi capable) and a copy of their initial course syllabus in digital form (or draft). The Institute curriculum assumes that all participants are operating with this basic background knowledge. http://prezi.com/1lufgz1q5vgn/service-learning-101-curricular-integration/ http://prezi.com/dftevgunuw3r/effective-community-partnerships/ Participants will utilize Blackboard and Facebook during the institute to share information with other institute participants and facilitators. (More details on the use of these technologies and how to connect will follow in future email)

In order to provide a productive work environment for the faculty at the institute, the Center for Community Engagement (CCE), along with Redesign Facilitators will work with the institute participants in small groups.
