Description

We've read the book so you don't have to! Join us for lunch while we host a discussion highlighting topics from the book Online Teaching at Its Best (Nilson and Goodson, 2018). Specially designed for faculty who may have already attended previous online learning programming in the Libraries or are currently teaching online courses to meet with fellow online instructors and see what's new in online learning. There will be time to meet with fellow online instructors, discuss instructional factors unique to online learning, explore new software, and gain awareness of resources both on- and off-campus. The event will also be streamed via WebEx for off-campus instructors.
