This certificate is offered at Santa Barbara City College and taught by Dr. Mathew Mooney, Professor of History. I am currently enrolled in this course and highly recommend it to all myPATH faculty and faculty that teach online. You will find the content both informative and inspirational. The certificate is achieved through the completion of two courses:
PROW NC070: A two-week course taught in Canvas that examines why and how to “humanize” online learning as well as the electronic components of our on-campus classes. Students are encouraged to step outside their comfort zones in a supportive, experimental learning environment, to create content with tools that infuse learning with their individual “presence.” When students relate to an online instructor as something more than a subject matter expert and begin to conceive of themselves as part of a larger community, they are more likely to be motivated, satisfied with their learning and achieve course objectives.
PROW NC071: A two-week course taught in Canvas that examines strategies to integrate learners’ voices, engage them in the active construction of knowledge, foster emotional connection and provide students with a choice of authentic assessments. Provides students hands-on experience with emerging technologies.
