FSCI INSTRUCTORS SCHEDULE – FSCI Schedule 

Instructor Courses/Meeting Information

There are two class periods of three hours each day (on Monday, the morning class period only will be two hours rather than three to allow a plenary session for introductions).  Morning (AM) classes run each day for the whole week (14 hours total). Afternoon classes run either Monday-Tuesday (MT), or Wednesday-Thursday (WT) (6 hours each). We will be scheduling throughout the event times where classes will be able to present their materials during a plenary session.   Coffee will be available throughout the day at the MET-ED outside patio.  This means that you do not need to hold a break at a specific time during your class period as you and your students can get refreshments at any time during the day. 

There is a common lunch break between 12:30-1:15pm each day. Meals are provided for those who are staying at on campus housing and will be served at the cafeteria next to the Dorm location.  This is about a 1/2 mile walk from the meeting location.  For those not staying in on-campus housing, we will provide a list of restaurants where you will be able to order food
