faculty to teach online
Lisa M Lane and Laura Paciorek
MiraCosta College
* Small-to-Medium Open Online Class

2. Faculty starting to teach online often aren't sure how to
begin...Usually preparation is provided only through
workshops or LMS training in things like Blackboard...

3. This approach encourages instructors to allow the
technology to limit how they teach....

4. Better preparation can be provided through an experience
that
● emphasizes pedagogy as well as tools
● encourages community
● is led by faculty
● provides mentoring
● is open to the world
● is taught online
