LEARN NC, UNC-CH team up to train faculty to teach online

Posted May 20, 2009 · by Bill Ferris · in Bulletin board

In a partnership with LEARN NC, UNC Chapel Hill has launched a pilot project aimed to support faculty members in online course development and delivery of summer school courses. Five faculty members will be chosen to develop five-week-long online course to be taught during summer 2010. Each faculty member selected will receive a $3,000 stipend, assistance in instructional design and assessment, and a contract from UNC-CH Summer School to continue the course during the summer of 2010.

    Hi, Robert. This program is actually only for UNC-CH faculty. Thanks for your interest, though!

    Hello, Nanita. This program is actually just for UNC-Chapel Hill faculty. However, if you’re interested in training as an online teacher, I encourage you to have a look at the Carolina Online Teacher (COLT) program. It covers the ins and outs of teaching courses online.
