Faculty Training
The Faculty Training Process
In general, two or three meetings are required before the potential online faculty member is fully trained in all the various aspects of an online course. Before the first meeting, the faculty member should read the tutorial by clicking on the following http://online.apu.edu/re/DotNextLaunch.asp?courseid=2957300.
Note: Login to eCollege is required before the
link above will take you to the tutorial. Login into online.apu.edu first then

Questions that arise from this tutorial will be addressed in the first meeting, and more detailed instruction will take place regarding various educational tools available in online course. Among the course tools that will be explained are:
- How to Login to the Course
- Threaded Discussions
- Dropbox
- Gradebook
- Webliography
- Doc Sharing
- Email and Communication with Students
- Groups Management
- Projects
- Uploading Text, Images, Powerpoints, Graphics, etc.
- Constructing Quizzes and Exams

Because of the large amount of information to process, it may require several meetings before the faculty member is able to process all the information.
