Meeting notes, Feb 27

Service plan update

“Faculty Roadshows” in April

Chairs and Associate Deans have expressed a need to ‘educate’ faculty about the excellent quality of our asynchronous courses that OL develops. There is a learning curve as to the online delivery of curriculum. When I arrived, Don organized a ‘showcase’of the course designs. I really appreciated that opportunity.

So pick your favourites that exemplify interactivity (a key concern for some programs) and OERs 😊

Many on campus faculty may not be aware of the scope of OL resources/people and what it takes to build a great course
