Getting Started for Instructors
This section offers instructions for creating courses enhanced with various collaborative and academic applications. Instructors of iSchool courses will find this site helpful for developing websites used in face-2-face, hybrid (also called blended), and fully online learning courses. A course might be a simple online syllabus or a fully online classroom, complete with a variety of communication and collaboration tools.
While we focus on online or hybrid (blended) learning courses, these instructions are useful for adding technology components to any iSchool course, regardless of delivery mode.
