WIC Fall Workshop at OSU Cascades

By Vicki Tolar Burton, WIC Director

We are taking the WIC show on the road! On November 2, 2017, nineteen OSU Cascades faculty gathered on the Bend campus for an all-day WIC workshop presented by WIC Director Vicki Tolar Burton. Many of these faculty are already teaching WIC courses or designing new WIC offerings for the OSU-Cascades curriculum. The faculty were highly engaged with discussions of what constitutes a WIC course as well as best practices for assignment design and critical thinking. A winter follow-up workshop is planned.
