NACADA Facilitator Design

This is an online training course for NACADA eTutorial facilitators. NACADA: The Global Community for Academic Advising is an association of professional advisors, counselors, faculty, administrators, and students working to enhance the educational development of students. eTutorials are the 3.5-week asynchronous professional development courses for academic advisors and advising administrators. The purpose of this short, asynchronous, self-paced training course is to instruct NACADA eTutorial facilitators in three primary areas: (1) eTutorial design and structure, (2) facilitator expectations, and (3) Canvas LMS navigation and functions. By focusing on these three topical areas, facilitators will become confident and prepared to facilitate eTutorials assigned to them. Additionally, by completing this training, eTutorial facilitators will represent quality instructors NACADA members expect in their professional development.

Storyboard

This storyboard provides a comprehensive overview of the vision my team and I conceived while crafting a Facilitators Course. We acknowledged that our target audience consisted of individuals holding master's or PhDs, and our aim was to furnish them with abundant resources for effectively preparing them in the art of eTutorial facilitation.

Note: The following section is a brief overview of the completed Canvas course. The first set of images views the entire course, and the second set of images dives into some individual pages.

Canvas Course Overview

There are three sections within the course that facilitators will engage in. The sections are broken down in the following way:

eTutorial Structure
NACADA Facilitator Expectations
Canvas Utilization (how to use Canvas)

Canvas Course Page View

Facilitators will find a wide range of modalities to engage in within this Canvas course such as:

Videos
Podcasts

Interactive Storyline and Captivate Modules
Quizzes

Note: The following two interactive Storyline modules were collaboratively developed alongside a subject matter expert from the National Academic Advising Association (NACADA). Complementing this effort, I also contributed to the creation of a companion Canvas course. Together, these resources empower NACADA eTutorial Facilitators to excel in understanding and applying the top ten expectations that define effective academic guidance.
