IGCC
Teaching Seminars
Promoting Undergraduate Education
In an effort to promote
teaching of contemporary international security
issues to undergraduates and to provide educators
with new course materials,
IGCC sponsored a series of intensive teaching
seminars. From 1993 to 2000,
faculty from throughout
the University of California, Cal State Universities
and California community colleges came together
for twelve of these semi-annual meetings. Faculty
organizers were encouraged to take advantage
of the strengths represented on the UC campuses
and the National Laboratories to pull together
a program suited to a multi-disciplinary audience.
Seminar content included small group discussions,
samples
of course syllabi, case studies, or other demonstrations
of experiential teaching techniques.
A
