The committee wants anyone who is passionate about UAF General Education's second learning outcome, which stresses critical and creative thinking, problem-solving, information literacy, written and oral communication, and collaborative learning.

The committee has formed EAGER to share with like-minded folks: Energy, Aspirations, Gifts, Expertise, Reflections. The GER and Core Faculty Senate Committee, led by co-chairs Latrice Brown and Jeremy Speight, has named these events Eager Plans.

The goal is to meet each other and co-design a new, faculty-driven, institutional process to ensure all students learn this outcome in UAF's General Education program.

This Eager Planning Party is one way to get involved in designing the pilot, but you will have more opportunities. For example, Eager faculty may decide to join others in piloting a new assessment scheme for Learning Outcome 2 in spring 2021. The results of the spring 2021 pilot will be used to involve all General Education courses that have been identified as meeting this outcome in fall 2021.
