Awards

Best Flexible Course Design Nomination

UVU Office of Teaching and Learning - November, 2024

During the summer of 2024, Stephanie Dunn and I redesigned our NURS 4540 course in collaboration with an instructional designer from the office of teaching and learning. When our course went up for a quality review, one reviewer stated; "This course is truly fantastic! I was impressed with the ease of presentation_ straightforward assignments and aesthetically pleasing slides; at the same time, it's rigorous and reflects the 4000-level course designation. I nominated it for a Flexible Teaching Award (which I rarely do)."
