You are eager to make the best use of that limited flow of money—but you might be stuck in analysis paralysis. Should you save up cash? Should you pay down debt (even student loans)?

This hands on session will help you build a toolkit of strategies for creating engaging student-centered learning experiences that align with your learning outcomes, regardless of class size.
