Online Instructor Training: Course Description
This course shows you how to create an online course. Starting with the syllabus and concluding with free online resources, this course offers lessons on lesson planning, facilitating online discussions, preparing a thorough syllabus and evaluating progress. The course also introduces Moodle and Voice over PowerPoint technologies. Since the Web is, by its nature, a visual medium, this course also provides you with resources for finding videos and images to use in your online course.

Any current or potential teacher of any subject may benefit from learning about how to create online courses.
