We have successfully completed the “IUCEE Online Teaching Course”, which was conducted during July to October 2020. The course was a quick response to the urgent need felt by our institutions as result of the COVID crisis. The course was offered for free as part of IUCEE Consortium membership benefits (10 faculty per institution). 452 faculty from 45 IUCEE institutions registered. 304 faculty completed the course including 176 faculty who passed with distinction.
This rigorous course was conducted via 26 live webinars. Assignments and discussions were posted and evaluated using LMS Canvas. A final Capstone Project was required in the form of a recording of the online course content developed by participants using the tools that were demonstrated.
The course was taught by a highly dedicated voluntary team of 14 experienced faculty members from our own IUCEE Consortium Institutions. 5 members of our international IUCEE voluntary team also participated. Prof. Keith Fernandes of St. Joseph Engineering College provided exceptionally dedicated service as part-time staff coordinator from IUCEE. List of the faculty and topics is given below.
