Colleagues Committed to Redesign (C²R)

Colleagues Committed to Redesign (C²R) was a three-year program conducted by the National Center for Academic Transformation (NCAT) from 2006 to 2010 with support from the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education (FIPSE.) The purpose of the program was to support the efforts of 60 colleges and universities to redesign their instructional approaches using technology to achieve improvements in student learning while reducing instructional costs. NCAT brought four-person teams together with NCAT staff and Redesign Scholars at a series of disciplinary institutes. The institutes introduced the teams to the NCAT methodology, shared strategies and techniques for successful course redesign, and helped them develop plans for course redesigns on their home campuses. Following each institute, NCAT supported collaboration and consultation among NCAT staff, Redesign Scholars and institutional teams to help teams apply what was learned at the institutes on campus and replicate prior successes.
