Course Design - Make an Impact

Our team is pleased to introduce our Instructional Designers who will guide you through some easy tips for making a visual impact with your course. This session will conclude with a chance for you to ask some questions of the experts.

How to Have a Great First Day

Starting your course fully or mostly online is exciting but not without its logistical challenges. In this session, our team will review how to set yourself and your students up for success in preparation for the first day. We will also review some best practices for teaching online and direct you to resources to support you throughout the semester.
