Last year we…
• certified 71 new digital professors
• offered over 350 courses to more than 1000
faculty
• offered face to face, hybrid, and online
courses with approx. 70% of the courses
taught online

4. Is Faculty Development Different?
Bloom’s Taxonomy of Learner Domains
• Cognitive: mental skills (Knowledge)
• Affective: growth in feelings or emotional
areas (Attitude)
• Psychomotor: manual or physical skills (Skills)

5. Research suggests that…
Teachers teach as they were taught, not as they
were taught to teach
(Ball, 1990; Britzman, 1991; Goodlad 1982; Lortie, 1975).

6. Why Develop Faculty Online?
We can…
• Model the model
• Create asynchronous communities of practice
• Allow faculty to experience the “Student
Experience”
• Allow faculty to develop and vet products to
be used in class with students

Why Model the Model?
• Screen Casting
