Course description
This course is offered by the Graduate School and the Center for Instructional Technology to support
professional development for graduate instructors and/or future faculty. It covers visual communication
for teaching and other professional activities in print, in face-to-face situations and online. This includes
introductions to web design, graphic design, effective presentations, development of an electronic
teaching portfolio and exploration of other instructional technology for college teaching. Completion of
this course includes development of an electronic teaching portfolio; numerous students from previous
semesters have found this to be extremely helpful in their job searches.
Objectives
By the end of GS 301, you will be able to
? Identify, describe and suggest modifications to design aspects of print documents
? Create professional print documents that demonstrate basic graphic design principles
? Collaborate with others to both provide and use peer feedback on design projects
? Make appropriate use of presentation technology in a live presentation
? Clearly explain your research focus to a live lay audience
? Find and use copyright-appropriate materials for presentations, websites and other instructional uses
? Create simple web pages by hand coding basic html
? Use DW to modify an existing CSS-driven website template for use as an online teaching portfolio
that demonstrates basic graphic design principles
? Develop and refine an electronic portfolio centered on a teaching with technology statement that
provides evidence of your use of instructional technology in pedagogically sound ways for use in a
job search
Activities
In this course, you will participate in a range of activities including hands-on tool use, small group
projects, individual projects, synchronous and asynchronous online communication, lectures, class
discussions, readings and other activities determined by class interest. You can expect to average about
two and a half hours a week on out of class activities.
