Summer with the OTL
With the spring term coming to a close, we know you are looking forward to a much-deserved summer. Thank you for all the ways you've worked so hard for our students. We hope that your summer will be restful and restorative.
If your summer plans include taking advantage of opportunities for your own professional growth or advancing your teaching practice, the Office of Teaching and Learning will be offering several short courses and institutes--many of which carry a stipend to honor the additional work.
Course Design Institute
Will you be designing a new course for the coming academic year, or are you wanting to make big changes to an old one? The Course Design Institute, which takes place August 14-18, supports faculty in designing learning experiences that result in significant learning – that is, learning that has the potential to change students’ lives in lasting and important ways.

Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) Institute
This summer the Office of Internationalization and the Office of Teaching and Learning will hold an institute designed to support faculty in understanding and applying the principles of Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL). COIL is a type of virtual mobility, where students from DU and a partner institution engage in purposeful interaction for intercultural and global learning in a joint course. COIL is ultimately about building connections and new relationships with people, knowledge systems, and perspectives across numerous types of borders.
