Be a Learner Again: OTCD and the Student Experience
from Teaching in the CTEI · host CTEI
In this episode, Angela speaks with Rush University faculty about their experiences taking CTEI's fully online, five-week teacher training course, Online Teaching and Course Design (OTCD). Among other topics, faculty discuss their motivations for taking OTCD, how it helped them with their teaching, and their favorite parts of the course. The key takeaway: make time for OTCD! It's worth it, it's required, and it's what we owe to our students. We thank our wonderful guests and their thoughtful contributions: Eileen Giardino, Associate Professor, Nurse Anesthesia, College of Nursing; Merima Karastanovic, Interim Program Director and Assistant Professor, Imaging Sciences, College of Health Sciences; and Linda Olson, Department Chair and Program Director for the Department of Occupational Therapy, College of Health Sciences. Rush faculty can find the dates of all upcoming sessions on the CTEI website and sign up for the next session, beginning on June 6.
