Epigeum, part of Oxford University Press, has two courses designed for instructors who are taking their first foray into online teaching.
To support you at this time, we are making these two online training programs, Teaching Online and Blended Learning, freely available through the end of May.
Teaching Online presents the fundamental principles of online pedagogy, guiding users through the “nuts and bolts” of designing, delivering, and evaluating online courses for the first time. It also includes a stand-alone course to support students in making the most of their online learning experience.
Blended Learning explores the strategic and practical implications of integrating face-to-face and online methods in teaching and learning, covering a range of models and approaches, and including advice on fostering a blended learning culture.
