Supported by the Educational Innovation (EI) Initiative, TeachOnline@UW will be offered again this upcoming academic year, beginning fall 2018. TeachOnline@UW is a unique learning community that provides faculty and instructional staff with support to make significant progress designing or redesigning fully online courses. Throughout the program, participants will have the opportunity to explore and implement research-based online course design and teaching best practices in two courses: “Plan & Design” and “Facilitation & Management.”
Stipends will be provided based on completion of the learning community courses: $1,500 for completing two courses; $750 for completing one course. In addition, a special summer 2019 “Plan & Design” course will be offered. To support instructors in developing quality online courses, applicants who do not have course development funding yet meet department and campus strategic needs may be selected to apply for instructional design assistance and course development funds to complete their online course, and participate in course evaluations and quality reviews.
