A three-week, asynchronous online workshop designed to facilitate peer sharing of strategies for designing and teaching online courses.
About this Event

This workshop is two weeks of immersive learning capped by one week of reflection and summary. Join us for this asynchronous online workshop designed to facilitate peer sharing of strategies for designing and teaching online courses. Taught in Canvas, participants will complete activities with due dates as students, using pedagogy and technologies designed to enhance online learning. Among the topics covered are: creating course orientations, facilitating online discussions, managing writing assignments, using multimedia and reviewing course quality. Workshop activities require at least 5 - 8 hours per week to complete, however, if you are new to online learning or online instruction you may require additional time to consume and integrate this experience. Plan for an investment of time that is meaningful to you and your goals. While there are assignment deadlines, there are no required synchronous sessions, you can pace your participation as needed throughout this workshop.

NOTE: This is NOT a workshop on the technical aspects of building courses in the Canvas course management system. Other workshops offered through the University Technology Office are available to develop your skills in this area.
