From the Office of Summer School
Faculty, Chairs and Program Directors: If a faculty member is scheduled to teach a lecture course in Maymester or any of the summer terms this year and plans to deliver the course 100% synchronously, the course schedule type must be listed as “Online Study + Scheduled Online Meetings” with the approved Maymester or summer term meeting times for face-to-face sections. Otherwise, students can have course conflicts when they enroll in more than one course per term or in overlapping terms. If the course will be delivered 100% asynchronously, then the course schedule type must be listed as “Online Exclusively”. If the faculty member plans to offer your course mostly asynchronously but with some synchronous meetings, again the schedule type must be listed as “Online Study + Scheduled Online Meetings” but list the specific days and times of day for those synchronous meetings on the schedule too. All lecture sections will be delivered online this summer, and these three designations are the most user friendly for our students.
Additionally, faculty must take the self-paced express DE readiness course this month to teach a lecture section this summer unless they have already completed the usual six-week DE readiness course. Mr. Phillips expects the self-paced DE readiness course to be available starting next week, and our deputy CIO Zach Hartje will contact faculty who have not yet completed the usual DE readiness course and are scheduled to teach a lecture section this summer. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we prepare for this summer.
