The curriculum for your online course is finished, but a strong curriculum is only half of the equation. To be successful in online education, you must also pay attention to the manner in which your course is facilitated.
As online learning grows in popularity, the reputation of your institution depends on how you meet this new challenge. As a university, you want to:
• Ensure student success and satisfaction,
• Conduct meaningful peer evaluations,
• Communicate clear expectations for instructors,
• Provide a strong, useful tool for self-evaluation, and
• Create an organized approach to teaching online–no reinventing the wheel each session!
The solution? Assessing Online Facilitation (AOF)–an essential tool for instructional organization, self assessment and peer evaluation.
In our 90-minute seminar, you’ll learn about the AOF and how it can be used to empower instructors and enhance online learning.
You’ll leave this seminar knowing:
• The key criteria that influence student satisfaction and learning.
• How to meet these criteria in an online (as opposed to face-to-face) environment.
• The different roles of an online facilitator: pedagogical, social, managerial and technical.
• Specific techniques that improve online teaching effectiveness.
• The value of a Facilitation Activity Record in structuring successful repeated facilitation.
• How to guide peer evaluation of facilitator performance in the online classroom.
This seminar includes generous take-home materials, including all of the checklists and forms you will need to fully implement the AOF system at your university.
