Conversion Workshop Faculty Feedback
“Honestly could not have gotten this course done without it. One of the best PDs I've ever attended in the organization, content, and support. Well done! It is a LOT of work to put a course online so be sure to remind people of the time it takes. It is a big commitment, depending on one's level of expertise, workload, and prior knowledge. Thank you!”
“I enjoyed the AIDI program and I would highly recommend that we have all faculty do the program”.
“This workshop was invaluable. I attended the 4-day session during winter break and honestly believe that it is the only way to go for someone who is converting a course for the first time”.
Faculty Feedback on the Instructional Designer Experience
“[My ID] was a wonderful match for me given her background in education. She was patient, prompt, professional, and knowledgeable. I could not have gotten where I am in developing an online course, from scratch, for the first time, without her support.”
“[My ID] is excellent. Very patient and knowledgeable with me. I may have pushed the envelope with instructional design with her and she responded with constructive and helpful guidance.”
“[My ID] was always prepared in advance for our consultations, was patient in troubleshooting, and helped me find some workarounds for issues that BeachBoard didn't have clear protocols for. I learned a lot from her and really enjoyed working with her.”
