There’s been a steady migration, if not an outright stampede, into the online classroom in recent years. Many of your colleagues are teaching there now.
What about you? Are you interested in bringing your passion for teaching into the online classroom, but are uncertain how to get there? Are you concerned about a long and painful learning curve? Or are you teaching online now but are finding the experience is less than what you expected?
If so, you’ll be pleased to discover there’s an online program developed especially for you. It’s called Online Courses: Step-by-Step, and it will help make your transition to online teaching easier and more fulfilling than you ever thought possible.
It’s focused, it’s fast, it’s practical, and it’s virtually painless.
To be successful in the online classroom, you don’t need to be a technology whiz … you don’t need to be a programmer … you don’t need a sophisticated understanding of the online world. You simply need to be a committed educator interested in engaging students in exciting new ways.
