Purpose

The Big Ideas Courses Faculty Learning Community was launched in fall 2014 as the inaugural FLC at The University of Iowa.  Members of the community teach interdisciplinary courses each of which is designed and taught by teams of faculty members across departments and colleges.  The FLC was developed to provide an environment for these faculty members to share pedagogical strategies and curricular design, as well as to discuss the development of a Big Ideas Program at the UI.
