The learning contract is an important part of any self directed learning
experience. A contract will be written by the student, revised in
conjunction with the professor, and used to determine overall course
performance. The contract will be the result of a self needs assessment
and will include learning outcomes, resources and strategies, evidence of
accomplishment of objectives, and how the evidence will be evaluated. The
contract will follow the format established by the University
of Colorado at Denver College Teaching Forum.
6 Steps to Complete the Learning Contract:
| a. |
Go to http://www.cudenver.edu/collegeforum/
If AND ONLY IF this does not work use the
copy that is on our website. (this copy will disappear next week) |
| b. |
Create your own login account by completing the user name
and password blanks and then submitting. |
| c. |
When you get to the main menu choose "Workshops,"
then choose "Using Learning Contracts." |
| d. |
Work through the 8 steps of creating a learning contract. |
| e. |
You will be completing a contract that follows this format
for ITED 8300. At the completion of the workshop you may complete
the blanks online and a copy of your contract will be emailed to
you. It is NOT, however, necessary to complete the form since you
will be submitting a contract to me also. |
 | See Dr. Schmertzing's notes
on how the workshop model relates to the contract you will write.
