Online Course Application to move existing courses online

2012

For faculty who has not previously taught online, the goal is to develop technical capacity and pedagogical awareness in online learning. For faculty more experienced with teaching online courses, the goal is to develop further a high quality learning experience when translating a course from face-to-face to blended or fully online formats. The Teaching and Technology Center (TTC) staff and Online Learning Faculty Fellow will provide hands-on workshops and peer instructional and technological support to participants as they plan and implement their online courses.

Interested faculty, and Visiting Lecturers must complete the application. This form is specifically for moving existing courses online (not for development of new courses). Only ONE application per faculty member/librarian/VL will be accepted per semester. Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis during Art Department Curriculum Committee meetings. Courses will be accepted to proposals exhibiting the most promise to meet our students' online learning needs.

The Art Department's Curriculum Committee in addition to the Director of Continuing and Distance Education, The Art Department's Curriculum Committee in addition to the Director of Continuing and Distance Education, will review the accepted course applications for final approval.

Proposals will be judged based on the following criteria: Potential for the course to succeed in an online delivery mode. Contribution the course makes to a related set of online courses within the core curriculum and the academic program or major. Likelihood that the course will continue to run in an online mode beyond the first semester.

Participants are expected to show a fully operational Moodle course site and its week-by-week assignment and course load breakdown.
