Title
Special session: Leading and administering transformative change in education beyond disciplinary boundaries.
Abstract
One of the first artifacts produced by a massive multi-year education transformation effort has been the launching of a one-of-a-kind program focused on transdisciplinary studies that goes well beyond conventional notions of disciplines. One of the main thrusts of the transformation was to intentionally and repeatedly integrate STEM and Humanities learning and outcome assessment of skills and abilities needed for the 21st century. The challenges of creating and sustaining systemic shifts in culture and operational systems at a large campus have been many, and sometimes controversial. This special session will provide attendees with information and active engagement in a dialog about the motivations, design, and implementation of significant systemic change. Attendees will take away insights not only from what is presented, but also active engagement in transdisciplinary conversations. This session aligns with FIE's focus on innovations in program design and classroom techniques.
