Team-taught, Interdisciplinary Courses: Possibilities and Pitfalls (as seen via the Honors Western Civilization Colloquium at the College of Charleston)

The panel explores the utility and challenges of offering team-taught interdisciplinary classes as a cohort experience for honors students. Using five years of student and faculty data from the HONS 120/130 Western Civilization sequence as an example, this presentation assesses student learning outcomes as well as the challenge of convincing students and faculty of the value of interdisciplinary models.
