Description
Designed to support Ohio State instructors who will be teaching online, this course explores the key considerations and affordances of the online learning environment and guides you to begin making choices for your online teaching.
Introduction to Teaching Online is a fully online experience delivered via CarmenCanvas over a two-week time period. The course provides a variety of resources, including readings and videos, as well as opportunities to interact with content and peers through activities and discussion. You will learn essential elements of online teaching with a focus on using evidence-based practices, and leave with a set of concrete next steps and resources to support your future teaching.
Consider the following before you register:
- Full participation in this course requires a 10-hour time commitment, including readings and assignments that are due on Monday, Wednesday and Friday of each week. You will leave this experience with a set of resources and concrete next steps, but not with a fully designed course.
- This course is a basic introduction to the principles around creating an Ohio State online course. If you have not taught online or done so in a limited way, this course will be valuable to you. If you have previously participated in an extensive online teaching professional development experience (including ODEE’s Kickstart Week or Online Course Delivery Basics, the Drake Institute’s Course Development Institute for Online Courses, or EHE’s Course Design Camp), you will find this course repetitive.
All registrants will be added to the Carmen course—log in at carmen.osu.edu to find the course on the start date.
