Are you scheduled to teach an online or blended course? If so, the Online and Blended Teaching Program can help! The Online and Blended Teaching Program is a multi-day program that focuses on helping instructors redesign their courses for the online or blended format using pedagogically-effective methods and practices.

Participants should plan to attend three face-to-face meetings on the following dates:

• September 22, 9:30-11:30am
• October 6, 9:30-11:30am
• October 20, 9:30-11:30am

During each session, program facilitators will lead discussions and activities focused on key pedagogical considerations for online and blended instruction. Topics discussed over the course of the program include:

• Using backward design for learning module creation
• Delivering digital content
• Developing effective online assignments and activities
• Assessing student assignments
• Managing instructor workload
• Supporting students
• Building presence and community
• Evaluating courses

Participants should also plan to engage in online activities between the face-to-face sessions that will aid in building a piece of their future course. These activities will require 2-3 hours per week and will include:

• Viewing presentations and reading articles
• Taking a quiz on content, activities, and assessment
• Participating in asynchronous discussion forums

By registering for this event, you are registering for all three dates (9/22, 10/6, and 10/20), even though the e-mail confirmation will only have the first date (due to registration system limitations).

Our program is activity-based, so please bring a laptop or tablet to all sessions, if possible. For more information, or to request special accommodations, please contact Dylan Barth at 414-229-4319.
