Project Summary:

The goal of this project was to develop a blended eLearning course to serve as a Humanities General Education course offered through York University's Writing Department. The new blended course reflects the university’s emphasis on enhancing the first year experience through “attention to the development of fundamental and transferable skills including effective communication, critical thinking, research and information literacy, and collaboration” (Building a More Engaged University: Strategic Directions for York University 2010-2020). Our challenge was to determine how online learning technology will best serve the goals of our specific course while enriching the learning experience of our students.
