Innovations in Faculty Development Workshop
Channel: Center for Online Innovation in Learning
Date: 23/08/2016

One of the critical factors to student success in any learning format is the skill and faculty of the instructor. Regardless of the title, the leader of the educational experience plays a key role in guiding, managing, and directing student learning. Meeting the continual and life long professional development needs of faculty requires attention to the needs and characteristics of these individuals. Designing, developing, and delivering faculty development programming demands innovation, creativity, and a constantly evolving set of strategies.

Considering the demands placed on instructors in a rapidly evolving teaching and learning ecosystem, professional development and growth is necessary throughout the career life of the instructional professional. This interactive and hands-on workshop, with guest faculty from two diverse learning contexts, will generate new techniques and methods, models, and approaches for faculty developers to serve the professional development needs of today’s instructor.

Featuring Guest Faculty Laurence B. Boggess, Director of Online Faculty Development, Penn State World Campus, Penn State University

Moderated by Lawrence C. Ragan, Co-Director, The Center for Online Innovation in Learning (COIL) and The Institute for Emerging Leadership in Online Learning (IELOL)
