12. How we can help
Help modify survey instruments to better fit
your division/department needs
Assist with talking to faculty/chairs/deans in
your division about online/hybrid courses
Help you think about policies and
infrastructure for online/hybrid courses as well
as supporting resources
Assist you one-one with your course
development shell in BB
The most efficient way to accomplish this is by adding multiple sections of large enrollment courses that are taught as hybrid or fully online classes. For example, 100 students taking a 3-credit undergraduate course in a hybrid format = 20 FTEs; in contrast, 30 students taking a 3-credit course = 6 FTEs.
