Gero-Ed E-learning - Coming this Summer!

The Gero-Ed Center will launch its first e-learning course, which will focus on the Process of Planned Change, in late summer. While this course uses gerontological infusion as its main example and backdrop, the content provides a good introduction to implementing curriculum change and course infusion in any substantive content area and can easily be applied to any planned change efforts.

In the summer of 2005, Gero-Ed Center staff surveyed CSWE members and other "gerontologically-interested" faculty members. When asked which gerontological topics they would be interested in taking, participants gave top ranking to strategies for curricular and organizational change. This and other data collected from the 632 respondents is guiding us as we prepare for the launch of our e-learning program.
