CETL | Online Certification Program - 0 views

  • The Online Faculty Competency Certification program is intended for future and existing online teachers. The program is designed to help faculty members become proficient in the use of Blackboard and to become effective facilitators in the online environment. What happened to the Excellence Program? Beginning Spring 2012, the Course Redesign program will replace the Excellence Program. Designed with face-to-face and online instructors in mind, the new Course Redesign program will afford all Texas Wesleyan instructors an opportunity to design a new course, or redesign an existing course, to include student-centered teaching and learning methods. The flexible nature of this program also allows faculty the opportunity to focus on specific skills and methods relevant to their particular subject and course. Instructors previously certified through the Excellence Program do not need to complete the new program and will remain certified as quality online instructors. To successfully complete the requirements for the Faculty Online Competency Certificate, participants must complete one of the following tracks:

About Speaking of Faith - 0 views

  • Speaking of Faith with Krista Tippett is public radio's weekly program about "religion, meaning, ethics, and ideas." We are produced and distributed by American Public Media and currently heard on over 200 public radio stations across the U.S. and globally via the Web and podcast. Krista takes a narrative, or first-person, approach to religious and philosophical conversation. She draws out the intersection of theology and human experience, of grand religious ideas and real life. A weekly national program since July 2001, Speaking of Faith is not so much about religion per se, but about drawing out compelling and challenging voices of wisdom on the most important subjects of 21st-century life; thereby creating a different kind of in-depth, revealing, illuminating dialogue than can be elicited by traditional journalistic treatments and debates. Topics range from "Einstein and the Mind of God" to "The Spirituality of Parenting" to "Diplomacy and Religion in the 21st Century."

Resource: American Passages: A Literary Survey - 0 views

  •  
    What is most important about the world of American literature? It's an important question, and some would argue for the works of Twain, while others might speak eloquently about Richard Wright, and so on. This inventive 16-part series for college students deals with the foibles of American literature through a "diversity of voices" in a way that is eminently accessible and interesting. This series was created in 2003 by Oregon Public Broadcasting and it features segments like Exploring Borderlands, Native Voices, and Regional Realism. Each program is also accompanied by a number of lesson units, plans, and additional classroom activities. Visitors can also read detailed program descriptions, and look over a list of Related Resources
