Office of Online Education

I’m honored to welcome you to the Office of Online Education. This is a time of identifying strategies and tactics that help us all teach and communicate better in a virtual world. As more courses are taught online, the OU Hudson College of Public Health aims to build capacity among faculty, students and staff. We are offering a workshop series and supporting the development of online certificate and degree programs.

If you have a question about the online education and college or questions about capacity building opportunities, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am excited to hear from you!

Preparing for Online Teaching & Learning (POTL) Workshop Series

The Preparing for Online Teaching & Learning (POTL) workshop series offers a ground floor introduction to teaching in the virtual environment. Within this series, faculty and members of leadership are introduced to key concepts and best practices needed to plan and develop online and hybrid courses and programs. The sessions help manage expectations, build understanding of differences in student needs when teaching in the virtual environment, and provide a framework for planning courses, programs, and scholarship. Learn what you need to know in order to establish a successful foundation on which to build lessons and curriculum. This series is offered by the Office of the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs & Faculty Development in collaboration with the Hudson College of Public Health.
