Note from the Distance Education Coordinator
Welcome! Whether you're teaching online for the first time or are a seasoned virtual pro, this space is here to support your work. My goal is to make sure your courses meet both quality standards and the needs of our students—without making you scream into the void.

Here, you'll find tools for course design, links to training, and reminders about policies that keep us in good standing with the State Regents (and help your students succeed). If you ever feel stuck, have questions, or want to bounce ideas around, don't hesitate to reach out. We are all in this digital classroom together.

Yasminda Choate,
Distance Education Coordinator
