Course Development Resources
Are you looking for support or resources to help with your online course development for fall 2020 or spring 2021? We know the challenge looms large and CETL and OIT's AET group have been working to develop a robust collection of resources for faculty to assist with developing engaging and resilient online courses.
Faculty Institute
A collection of resources built for faculty on best-practices and strategies for moving your course from face-to-face to online.
- A CatCourse site packed with resources for online teaching. All faculty should see the course on “Faculty Institute: Building Instructional Resilience” on their CatCourses dashboard (login through https://catcourses.ucmerced.edu/). If you don’t see the course on your dashboard, you can request access here.
- Opportunities to meet 1-1 with an Instructional Designer to develop a map for revising your course. Use this link Where Do I Start? to schedule a time that is convenient for you.
