Hello and Welcome to our Blog!

Our Team

We are the St. Cloud State University Online Team (SCSU Online). We are made up of a group of wonderful people with backgrounds in education and education administration, online teaching and learning, and learning management systems. Our team supports the college globally by providing faculty development opportunities, in the form of Learning Lab demonstrations, Pedagogy and Practice webinars, a website, a podcast, and now, this blog. Locally, we support faculty through assistance with course design, D2L support, the introduction of new technology, and other online-related activities.

What We Do

Here at SCSU Online, we strive to provide our faculty with the information and the tools to help them become more successful in their online course administration and student engagement. We want to provide education and assistance to faculty that will help transition their teaching practices from face-to-face to an online, hybrid, or hyflex format more easily. We are here to coach, support, and troubleshoot faculty through the processes involved in new course creation, as well as current course offerings.

Our Blog

What you can expect from this blog is information to spark thinking and conversation centered on online education. There will be researched based topics that may be both familiar and unfamiliar to our audience but are published to be impactful. We will provide information on topics encompassing foundational skills, technology in the online classroom, student engagement, various types of pedagogy, and more. This blog will not be the run-of-the-mill distribution of information specifically suited for online learning but one that will present information that can be transferred to other formats of teaching.

Check back often, as we will post frequently to the blog. You can also find more information by joining us live during our Learning labs, watching previous Learning Lab recordings, browsing our website, or listening to our podcast. We hope you find something of interest here and choose to engage with us further.

Respectfully,

SCSU Online
