Wiley Faculty Network: Connecting with Other Faculty

Wiley Faculty Network
Do you need a few more tips and tricks to make your hybrid course more effective? Are you having a hard time assessing the students' work in D2L, and could use advice from an expert?

Consider streaming online lectures from the Wiley Faculty Network: http://www.wiley.com/college/wfn/

Go to View > Archived Online Events and you will see the long list of topics of past Wiley "Online Events". Some past presentations that pertain to online/hybrid teaching are:
  • Providing Quality Feedback in Your Online Course: How to Do It and Keep Your Sanity
  • First Principles of Instruction (about instructional design)
  • Getting the Most Out of an Online Course: Effectively Facilitating Discussion Threads
  • Putting Your Course Online: Practical Strategies for Getting Started (10.3 Session)
There are also discipline-specific presentations, such as "Technology in Nutrition: Using Dietary Analysis Software to Enhance Student Engagement".

You can access a list of the lectures without creating an account, but to view the recorded lecture or enroll in upcoming web events, you will need to create a free account. Go to the Wiley Network homepage (link above), click on "Log In" in the top right of the page, and sign up for an account.
