Uncovering Multi-Disciplinary Skills
There are underlying commonalities within the taught curriculum for all departments and disciplines. Step back to review what skills are being taught in all departments and examine its impact on the connected curriculum. Your discoveries will:

• Explore how student centric skills like critical thinking and reading, can be reinforced and covered in all disciplines.
• Examine different strategies for integrating skills.
• Scaffold non-discipline specific skills into a continuum.

Discipline Analysis for Alignment
A key component throughout Rubicon's Methodology is curricular review and alignment. Come prepared to address the top five issues facing your department and discover new strategies and ideas from other Atlas peers.

• Conduct a thorough analysis of your discipline.
• Create a series of reports and protocols to facilitate conversation and review
• Explore innovative teaching practices within your discipline and how to embed them into the taught curriculum.

Build Tools and Resources*
Continue to expand tools and resources you need by creating an interactive podcast for your team or brainstorming with colleagues from around the world on key items.

Participants will select one focused activity by creating a podcast or tool that reflects one of the following:

• Explore new strategies to document multi-disciplinary skills.
• Engage your discipline in using Atlas to explore key questions.
