WebCT Training



Throughout 2007-2008, we will be offering a suite of training opportunities to help you use WebCT as a teaching and learning environment. Whether you’ve taught online before or just starting out, these workshops are designed to give you the confidence and tools to be an effective online instructor.

Workshop # 1 - “Designing with WebCT”

This ‘beginners’ workshop will introduce you to the skills necessary to design, create, and develop effective and engaging online courses. No prior experience needed.

Workshop # 2 - “Teaching with WebCT”

This ‘intermediate’ workshop will introduce you to the technical and pedagogical skills necessary to be a successful and effective online instructor. Prerequisite: Workshop # 1

Workshop # 3 - “Creating Assessments & Assignments”

This ‘advanced’ workshop will help you learn how to create and manage assignments and assessments through hands-on activities, applied exercises, and group projects within WebCT. Prerequisite: Workshops # 1 & 2

Workshop # 4 - Topics & Discussions

These presentation/discussion sessions are designed to help us informally interact on topics related to online pedagogy and teaching. Join your colleagues in learning new technologies and creative ways to be an effective online instructor. Topics will be announced before each monthly session. Everyone welcome!

Format. Though all Workshops and Topics & Discussions will take place face-to-face, there will be training and additional support materials available online. * If you are unable to come to campus for any of the Workshops, we can arrange a training session so that you can participate via phone conference from your home or office. Please let us know if you would like to schedule one.

Location. All sessions will be held in the UC Training Room - IITS #367 (behind the Media Center in the basement of the Library).
