Faculty Development for On-line Educators Lawrence C. Ragan, Director Instructional Design and Development Penn State’s World Campus

Goals To explain/highlight the role of faculty development within the World Campus Describe faculty development initiatives Q&A

Philosophy of Faculty Development Faculty are one of the most critical resources Faculty need new skills/competencies Faculty desire learning opportunities Faculty development must be multi- dimensional

History of FC at World Campus Started in 1995 Provided “intro to DE” style programs IDE (AT&T funded project) enabled sponsor of more FD programs Today’s programs--rich assortment of offerings Part of ID&D mission

Faculty Development Goals Provide skills in technology and pedagogy Use existing FD University-wide programs Provide varied formats (independent/ cohort, on-line/print, synchronous/ asynchronous, individual/group)

Faculty Development Resources 1/4 Grad student position assigned to Faculty Development Annual budget item (separate from ID&D) Access to tech support and ID&D staff

On-line FD Design Fac Dev started in 1998 Goal: provide faculty with “distance student perspective” Cohort-based FD opportunity (instructor lead) Grad student “project” with staff input Initially opened in 1998 to PSU only

On-line FD Experience Limited response (3/20) Limited access by faculty Tremendous external interest Revisit our approach

Fac Dev 101 (today) Consists of public site with information on –a) authoring content for on-line courses, –b) instructing an on-line course Consist of “private” space for PSU- only dialog
