CIT will be conducting an orientation for faculty and teaching assistants who will be involved in creating Coursera MOOCs.

The purpose of this orientation is to familiarise faculty and teaching assistants who will be using Coursera with its user interface and functions.

This session will provide an overview and best practices to get staff selected for MOOCs to start creating content on the Coursera platform.

Faculty and TAs who will be using Coursera platform to teach in the coming semester have been contacted via email to register and attend. There will be two sessions to choose from. Read the course outline.

Dates: Fri 16 Aug 2013 or Wed 4 Sep 2013
