Short Description

This case study research will examine faculty member experiences during a six-week cohort-based asynchronous training program developed and facilitated by instructional designers at one of the largest universities in northern Virginia. This study found evidence indicating that instructional design support during a well-designed professional development course can help faculty members overcome challenges; transfer their skills to online teaching practice; and revealed the importance of instructional designers in modelling best practices of teaching online.
