Each of the faculty has different goals for her course revisions and different delivery methods. Ida Jones and Lynn Forsythe will focus on their fully online sections. Ida Jones will make improvements by creating more instructor- videos, finding and modifying quality supplemental materials from open source repositories. and from publisher’s products depending on cost, refining eportfolios for students to explore their metacognitive skills, and re-developing online learning communities to promote student engagement. Lynn Forsythe will create an online class and implement online supplemental instruction (SI) in this section. Deborah Kemp will create a flipped classroom learning experience, collaborating with Lynn on SI and Ida on prerecorded lectures delivered online. All three instructors will promote active learning and critical thinking skills.
