RSVP for our webinar with Kate Weishaar, MIT First Year Experience Coordinator, titled "Helping Students Navigate a Computing-Centered World"
Webinar description
ILOs: By the end of the webinar, participants should be able to identify current student strategies for navigating the college experience, examine the roles that upper-level students play in the first-year experience, and explain how computing has complicated the process of self-discovery for college students.
Summary: To keep up with an increasingly complex and rapidly changing job market, universities must prepare students that are introspective, versatile, and adept at navigating vast quantities of information. MIT’s Office of the Vice Chancellor has been partnering with current students to design a first-year experience that meets these needs. This webinar will discuss this collaborative design process as well as a few of the resulting efforts to improve the first-year experience.
