Workshop for Theological School Faculty Teaching Online In this workshop, theological school faculty will design, build, implement, assess, and redesign an online or hybrid course to be taught in the 2018-19 academic year. The workshop will be offered as a hybrid experience, blending elements of individual work, three face-to-face sessions, and collaborative work as part of a virtual learning community. During the first summer, participants will engage in an intensive program that includes online content (developed in collaboration with the University of Wisconsin - Madison), bookended by two of the face-to-face gatherings with peers on the Wabash College campus. During the 2018-19 academic year, participants will teach and assess the course they designed. In the final face-to-face session during the summer of 2019, each participant will review their assessment information, share best practices, wrestle with deeper issues of pedagogy and sociology of learning, and complete a plan for revising their course. Goals Participants will be able to: Design, construct, implement, assess, and revise a well-conceived and pedagogically sound course for delivery in an online or hybrid format Assess the unique opportunities and challenges for effective teaching and learning posed by traditional, hybrid, and online teaching environments Apply sound principles of pedagogy and the sociology of learning communities to the design of an online or hybrid course Make informed decisions about how to shape effective pedagogical and sociological strategies for the venue in which they will be used, in order to achieve the desired learning outcomes Design and facilitate learning activities and processes in order to achieve effective, relational, and formational learning outcomes Contribute in positive ways to institutional exploration of online and hybrid learning environments Honorarium Participants will receive an honorarium of $3400 for full participation in the three f2f and online course sessions.

Preparatory Documents Graduate Program Teaching Initiative Summative Conference Preparatory Documents Each program prepared two documents that were distributed electronically prior to the conference. Document 1: Teaching Preparation in your Doctoral Program Prepare a brief summary of the teaching preparation aspects of your doctoral program so other institutions can have a good understanding of how it is structured, who is involved, and the various stages the doctoral students go through. This should involve things such as its place in the student's program, how much teaching is involved, how the supervision is structured, whether there is a teaching colloquy or class, how the faculty are trained or oriented, etc. This document should be no longer than 2 pages. Document 2: Summary of Findings from Teaching Initiative Work Prepare a brief summary of your findings from the work of the Teaching Initiative. A refined version of no. 6 in the school's final report can be used for this. Again, this needs to give other institutions a good understanding of what was learned from the visiting alumni/ae as strengths and weaknesses of your program and what steps you have taken or are projecting taking to amend or improve your program. The 2 documents submitted by each program have been combined into a single document. Click on the school name to open and download the pdf from each of the participating programs. 1.
