Beyond Crossroads Summer Workshop
Cape Cod, Massachusetts

The BC Way: Embracing Change for Continuous Improvement

Full implementation of the standards outlined in Beyond Crossroads includes making a commitment to continuous improvement in instruction to enhance student learning. Attendees will learn to use the Beyond Crossroads Implementation Cycle by developing, assessing, and improving projects of their choice.

The two-day workshop/conference will have multiple sessions to choose from. Faculty teams are encouraged to attend, but individuals are welcome as well. There will be plenary sessions and concurrent break-out sessions, with opportunities for faculty teams to work on specific Beyond Crossroads standards and recommendations. Contact Mary Moynihan, mmoyniha@capecod.edu, for more information. (Details)

The conference will take place on scenic Cape Cod, Massachusetts. With its quaint small-town atmosphere, long sandy beaches, scenic harbors, and fried clams and lobster specialties, "the Cape" is a world famous tourist destination.
