What training and expertise are faculty required to have in order to teach for ELI?
In addition to the ability to use the range of features in Blackboard, as mentioned above, ELI faculty are expected to participate in a half-day new-faculty orientation session to learn about administrative policies and procedures and best practices in online teaching. (For faculty who live out of the Northern Virginia region, arrangements can be made to participate from a distance.) And, since ELI courses are taught online, we expect our faculty to be competent and comfortable with email and the basic office software necessary for record-keeping and communicating with students and ELI staff.
