More About This Title The Course Syllabus: A Learning-Centered Approach(Foreword by Robert M. Diamond)
English
JUDITH GRUNERT’S current research is concerned with how faculty across disciplines in higher education approach their research. She is presently at the Syracuse University Center for Instructional Development where she works with faculty in various disciplines to improve learning. Grunert’s interest center on the ways that instructors in higher education can help students to become the agents of their own education. She draws upon her experience as a member of the School of Art faculty, College of Visual and Performing Arts, Syracuse University, and as a Lilly Endowment Fellow, when she developed curricular and instructional materials that would help students assume increasing responsibility over planning, implementing, and evaluating their learning experiences.
Grunert has coordinated and contributed to the design and development of national educational projects for education, government, and not-for-profit organizations, She exhibits her sculpture and drawings at museums and galleries.
