This interactive seminar will be of interest to educators and researchers in all disciplines of higher education.

The Connected Curriculum (Fung 2017) is a framework for whole of program design that links learning with research and practice, and between subjects and students. It allows us to frame questions around where and how students engage in collaborative interaction with others as well as the object of study. In this seminar participants will learn about the various dimensions of the framework and then apply these to their program to assess the overall program experience for students.
