Supporting Faculty in the Virtual Classroom
Presented at the ITC e-Learning 2009 Conference Melanie Bartlett Asst. Director – Virtual Learning David Rausch, PhD Director – Center for Teaching and Learning Macomb Community College As colleges recognize the opportunities and advantages technology brings to the face-to-face and virtual classroom, the distinction between those who provide instructional design, IT, and academic development support blurs. Quality faculty support requires an understanding of adult learning and a focused approach to reducing unnessary faculty effort. Simple tools such as learning object repositories provide an array of resources that can make things easier for faculty and college's support teams. The presenters will discuss techniques for successfully supporting faculty in the virtual classroom including certification training, the use of open labs, workshop formats, and virtual meeting/training tools.

- I want to thank everyone who gave up some of their Sunday afternoon. Our purpose today is to share some of the ideas successes and missteps we have encountered in our quest to provide high quality responsive faculty support for the virtual classroom. Macomb Community College is located in Eastern Metro Detroit with at least 26,000 students. David Rausch—As the Director for the Center for Teaching and Learning my responsibilities include our virtual learning area, our instructional technology area and our assessment and academic success areas. Melanie Bartlett-As the Assistant Director of Virtual Learning I focus my energies in the creation, development and delivery of training and learning content to assist faculty in using the virtual classroom.
