Farris, Shari
Journal of Staff Development, v36 n5 p54-58 Oct 2015
As faculty chair of early childhood education at Vanguard University of Southern California, the author was challenged each day by questions: How to provide high-impact online professional learning to adult continuing education students? What barriers exist for adult learners seeking meaningful professional learning? How does practice as a facilitator shift in an online learning environment? In this article, the author discusses how to create high-impact professional learning in an online environment, assess learners' technology skill level, and then use technology tools to design engaging and relevant learning experiences.
