Material Detail

This site contains a series of Brief Hybrid Workshops (BHWs) on Teaching Well Online. BHWs are designed to address the professional development crisis of faculty members desiring and needing knowledge/skills related to teaching and learning but lacking the time to participate in traditional faculty development workshops. In contrast to traditional workshops, BHWs are more focused, portable, and require 15 minutes or less to complete. An important component of a BHW is a well-crafted, Internet-accessible, media presentation lasting 5 minutes or less. Such media presentations can convey information or present instructional challenges and/or solutions effectively and efficiently. Wrapped around the media presentation is an active learning group activity related to the topic. BHWs have the capability of raising awareness of important teaching and learning issues, and quickly engaging faculty to encourage more informed practice.
