SRFIDC 31st Sharing Conference
North georgia college and state university
March 26 -30
Doing MOre with less: sustainable Faculty Support

The year's conference will mark the 31st anniversary of the SRFIDC. Our theme for this conference addresses the responses of faculty developers to tighter budgets, with emphases on increasing online teaching, evaluating online instruction, teaching higher enrollments, designing curriculum materials for video and web dissemination, and institutional competition for students. We invite session proposals that focus on strategies, tools, pedagogies, or technologies related to the theme.
The conference will be hosted by North Georgia College and State University in Dahlonega, Georgia; although, the conference location will be the lodge at nearby Unicoi State Park. NGCSU is highly ranked in the south among public universities offering undergraduate and master's programs, with emphasis on strong liberal arts, pre-professional and professional programs. Founded in 1873, with distinction for being the first public college in Georgia to admit women, NGCSU specializes in leadership training. Of its more than 5000 students, about 12% are enrolled as cadets; NGCSU serves as one of only six Senior Military Colleges in the US. http://www.ngcsu.edu/
