I am sharing an update on the Strategic Plan deliverable I’m leading, which falls under our commitment to future-proof applied education, and the initiative for renewal in flexible studies.
This deliverable is focused on innovation in e-learning, and empowering faculty and students with educational technologies, resources, and academic support to enhance our in-person, blended, and online learning environments.
To date, we have completed the first year of our E-Learning Strategy implementation, including launching several new educational technologies, piloting an E-Learning Fellowship program for faculty, expanding access to virtual academic services, new Open Education initiatives, and enhanced training resources and supports for faculty and students.
Over the past year, our students and faculty have shown resilience, drive, and innovation in the use of educational technologies to enhance learning and teaching. As we come together again this Fall, I’m looking forward to continuing with the outstanding achievements we’ve made as a community, including building upon our successes with e-learning innovation and learning and teaching excellence.
Thank you,
