Slide by Michelle Pacansky-Brock CC-BY-NC

“"I knew that learning in a classroom was a social
interaction, but for some reason, I left that at the door
when I tried to teach on-line before this course. Now
I get it! And, I have learned that there are so many
simple (and free) tools on-line that can help me make
the experience more personal and more social.”
- CI Faculty Member
##OPID2016

“"I understand how to build a sense of community
and personal connection with students, even in a
setting in which we do not meet face to face. I
actually think that an online course has the
potential to create the same if not greater personal
connection between instructor and students.
- CI Faculty Member

““I think this is a must take course
for faculty … who think online
learning is nothing more than a
glorified correspondence school.”

things we need and crave the most like
joy and love and belonging, trust,
empathy, creativity.”
