Teaching Online Learning Community

The concept of small teaching is simple: small and strategic changes have enormous power to improve student learning. Instructors face unique and specific challenges when teaching an online course. This learning community will focus on the book "Small Teaching Online: by Flower Darby with James Lang, which offers small teaching strategies that will positively impact the online classroom.

In the Fall, we will discuss the book. In the Spring, we will discuss application of the strategies described in the book, share findings, and demonstrate changes in our teaching based on the readings.  Applications are due by September 3rd, 2024.

When: Mondays 11am - 12pm

     Fall: 9/9,  9/30, 10/14, 10/28, 11/18

     Spring: 2/3, 2/24, 3/10, 4/7, 4/21
