The course will review institutional views and motivations for engaging in online education, as well as the programs and support that are necessary to be successful. Students will explore national trends and research on online teaching, building a foundation of evidence for effective online learning. A conceptual framework for online teaching and learning will be developed based on learning theory and different models of instructional design will be considered. Students will have practical experience with instructional resources and Web 2.0 tools and their affordances and constraints in the online learning environment. In addition to working through the opportunities and challenges of creating an entire online course, students will consider effective online teaching strategies to create an engaged, online learning community. Special topics related to online teaching such as intellectual property, copyright, and plagiarism will also be discussed.\u00a0 The course is going to be offered fully online, so students in the course can personally experience this modality as learners.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learning Objectives:<\/strong>\u00a0By the end of this session, participants will be able to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Define and explain key concepts in Online Learning<\/li>\n<li>Summarize and describe current research on online teaching<\/li>\n<li>Demonstrate and use basic instructional design concepts<\/li>\n<li>Construct and demonstrate online resources and activities with Web 2.0 tools<\/li>\n<li>Apply instructional design concepts and create an online course environment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>EDE472: UR Faculty Online Course Development <\/strong>\u00a0(3 credits)<br \/>\n<strong>This is a 6 week version of EDE486, offered to groups of UR faculty from the same department or school \u2013 <\/strong>contact <a href=\"mailto:eric.fredericksen@rochester.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Fredericksen<\/a> if interested<\/p>\n<p><strong>EDF488: Practicum in Online Teaching <\/strong>(3 credits) <em>(Pre-requisite: EDE486\u00a0 OR EDE472;
