The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Education is offering a new \u201cmicro-credential\u201d to help elementary and high school teachers improve their online teaching abilities.<\/p>\n

Courses will be offered in two sessions: From July 13 to July 29, and from July 20 to Aug. 5 and will be a mix of online class meetings and independent work over a total of 25 hours each session. <\/p>\n

The need for such a micro-credential has become apparent as the COVID-19 pandemic has affected public education and created challenges in elementary and high school classrooms, according to Simone Concei\u00e7\u00e3o, professor of administrative leadership. <\/p>\n

The goals of the course are to help teachers overcome these challenges using innovations in online learning as a framework. Teachers will learn how to design lessons that promote online presence, digital communications, interactivity and community building. <\/p>\n

Using the design thinking process, participants will define design challenges, create solutions, develop prototypes and test design solutions.<\/p>\n

Instructors for the courses include Concei\u00e7\u00e3o, who has written a number of books about online learning; Candance Doerr-Stevens, assistant professor of teaching and learning, who teaches digital literacy; and Kirstin Gaura, information technology consultant for the School of Education. <\/p>\n
