About

The Master Class for Teaching Online is a two-week, asynchronous online workshop designed to facilitate peer sharing of strategies for designing and teaching online courses.

Experience

The core goal of Master Class for Teaching Online is to connect, build and foster a community of instructors and faculty. Through various course activities participants will have an opportunity to engage in discussion with one another to share ideas, stories, insights and innovations.

Participants are always from varied discipline, teaching, and online experience backgrounds which offers a diverse and broad range of experiences to share. 

The course also aims to expose instructors to the student perspective of a learning experience to help inform how they teach online.

You will also be introduced to a number of technology tools that you may be interested in using in your course to support your learners and their learning experience.
