My name is Liz Falconer, and this is the first year that we have offered this certificate.
We are very excited about the curriculum we have put together -- we have included a wide
variety of learning activities and explorations. You will be thinking about these courses in
a sort of multi-dimensional fashion. On the one hand, you will be a student, naturally.
And on the other hand you will be moving through the courses as an educator,
and will be gathering ideas, tools, and methodologies that you can modify and perhpahs use for your own courses.
And you will also be thinking about your final project as you move through all the courses,
because at the end of the series, you will have an online or hybrid course that you have developed on your own.
With this in mind, we have chosen to incorporate as much variety of online tools and technology
as possible, so that you have a chance to familiarize yourself with them and select
those that might be useful for you. You can think of it as sort of a buffet, where you
can fill your plate and taste a wide variety of items. Online teaching and learning
has affected everything we are doing, and how we do it. We want the participants in
this series to develop confidence and enthusiasm for the possibilities this provides...
please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to sharing this
adventure with you!
