Steven G. Rogelberg

Multiple employees described his meetings as “a time suck.” They complained that he asked them to meet too often, allowed a few people to dominate conversations, and failed to create an environment where attendees really wrestled with ideas and engaged in critical thinking. These comments took Dave by complete surprise. He’d thought he was doing a good job with meetings—better than most of his peers, anyway.

Report: Online learning growth continues, but opportunities for improvement remain

Growth in blended courses lagged that of fully online offerings but was proportionally higher at smaller institutions.

Hopkins Universal Design for Learning Initiative
Hopkins Universal Design for Learning Initiative
The Hopkins Universal Design for Learning Initiative (HUDL Initiative), seeks to support the use of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles in face to face and online courses across the university. UDL provides an opportunity for the Hopkins community to think about teaching and learning methodologies that accommodate and provide opportunities for success for all learners, not just those who request an accommodation. As the JHU learning community grows, the potential for learning variability grows as well. UDL can help JHU’s leadership in dynamic and meaningful learning.
