This week
- There are no online readings for you to complete.
- If you did not do so last week, please contact your instructional designer to schedule a consultation this week to prepare for the <Replace - Course Title> Showcase.
- Reminder: If you have not already had the accessibility review of your online course content pages and you would still like to participate, contact your instructional designer. A report generated as part of this process will identify any potential accessibility concerns that your instructional designer will review with you to help develop a plan to address these concerns.
- Continue working on your Build Your Course Activities to prepare for next week’s <Replace - Course Title> Showcase. Details are provided below.
Build Your Course Activities
- Revise/finalize the course content you plan to present at Showcase [ e.g., syllabus, course expectations, module, assessment, social media tool (optional)].
- As you revise your course documents in Word, make sure your documents are formatted according to the Formatting Guidelines.
- To convert your Word documents to Pages, you have two options to choose from. Please select one of the options below.
- If you would like to upload an assessment ( e.g., quiz, self-test, survey) to your course but decide not to develop the assessment directly within Webcourses@UCF yourself, you may submit your quiz to CDL for processing.
- If you have links to media such as YouTube, Materia, or other web pages that link outside of the course, please check to make sure these links are working within your development course.
- Talk to your instructional designer if you have any questions about finalizing your materials for Showcase.
- Prepare for the <Replace - Course Title> Online Faculty Showcase.
You will have set time limit to present at the Showcase with 2 minutes reserved for questions (The time will be determined by the amount of participants. Please discuss the exact time during Consultation 3 and 4). The following are suggestions that could be considered for your presentation:
- A quick summary of your course context
- Identification of a specific aspect of your online course that the you feel is unique, innovative, or compelling (e.g., course design, activity, interaction)
- A traditional classroom activity or aspect that you were able to transition to the online environment
- Some aspect of the IDL6543 faculty development program that was especially rewarding
If you have not yet discussed your showcase module with your instructional designer, please contact your ID to schedule a consultation this week.
