Teaching Resources for General Education Courses
Teaching a General Education course at EKU can be rewarding. While keeping the content current, each iteration of a course poses new opportunities to encourage student engagement both in and out of class, enhance student learning, and create connections to the University along with campus resources.
Here we offer a collection of resources intended to introduce faculty to different pedagogical approaches for General Education courses at EKU, along with sample assignments, resources, and course materials from faculty.
This area of the EngaGE website is meant to be a living and evolving entity. It will frequently change and grow to meet the developing needs of faculty across EKU's General Education program.
We encourage faculty to explore the resources here and connect with us on the design of future resources.
