Ottawa University – Tempe and Mesa AZ campuses – June 2006
to present
Adjunct Faculty, History
Ottawa is a non-traditional
private college that serves largely adult re-entry students seeking a degree in
a shorter time period. All classes are completed in 8-week Sessions. This can
be a challenging format to teach in and I found that I had to develop new ways
of presenting material and re-design assignments. We did make use of Blackboard
and this really helped a Short Session class of adult learners who often had
fulltime jobs and families, so we were able to communicate in ways beyond the
once weekly meeting. (Courses taught: see below list).
