This message to all faculty and staff has been approved by Robert J. Fuselier, Director of the Office of Distance Learning.

The Office of Distance Learning is offering spring webinars designed to help instructors with course development. Learn how to incorporate elements of quality design into your online courses with one or more of our training sessions.

Course Quality & Design

In these webinars, you’ll discover the importance of module-level learning objectives and their alignment with class materials, activities, and assessments. Sessions also explore delivery strategies for effective communication and ways to engage students with online activities.

Tools & Technologies

We offer skill-building webinars that highlight instructional tools such as Kaltura, New Quizzes, and the Canvas Gradebook. From creating engaging media to getting your Gradebook up and running, these tools can help you enrich your online course and your learners’ experiences.

Universal Design & Accessibility

Accessible course materials are critical to ensuring that all students can enjoy a positive learning experience. We provide training on the accessibility tool Ally and the principles of universal design, as well as how to make Word and PDF documents accessible.
