What happens during the CEL Deep Dive?
The CEL Deep Dive is a two-week intensive at the start of the Fellowship that builds our community, shared vision, and momentum. To support and inspire each other in designing community-engaged learning experiences, we will:
- Utilize storytelling, reflection, and futuring strategies to reveal our aspirations and set personal learning goals.
- Design and implement listening campaigns to root our instructional design in student curiosities.
- Learn strategies to expand and diversify potential community partnerships and build student social capital.
- Develop tools and practices for effectively communicating and co-creating with community partners.
- Apply a framework of authentic contribution to our performance tasks, enhancing the depth and quality of student learning.
- Learn strategies and access resources to secure grants for CEL experiences
