Teaching Online Lists

Ideas in your inbox

Subscribers will receive periodic emails from others on the list and may also send emails to the list.

The Teaching Online list has several goals, including:

  • Provide online instructors at Texas State with a communication venue in which they can exchange ideas, share frustrations and successes, and suggest solutions when pedagogical and technical issues related to online learning arise;
  • Raise awareness of best practices in online education to help improve the quality of online course offerings; and
  • Showcase different methods for delivering content, building communities and developing assessments.
