Description: This course examines the underlying principles that guide effective teaching in an age when everyone, particularly the students we teach, uses technology. Teachers, instructors, and faculty are facing unprecedented changes, including larger classes, more diverse student populations, demands from government and employers for more accountability, and the development of graduates who are workforce-ready. Above all, they must cope with ever-changing technology. The course explores decisions related to the mode of delivery, cost-effective methods for blended and online course delivery, making smart choices about available media to benefit students, managing high-quality teaching in a rapidly changing learning environment, and exploring the possibilities for teaching and learning using OERs, Open Textbooks, and MOOCs.
