What is Keys Faculty Online?
We created a 24/7 online faculty-development site in which author Joyce Bishop facilitates the sharing of Student Success teaching strategies. With this unique resource, you will join fellow Keys users to see how Dr. Bishop works with actual students enrolled in her course, find instructor advice, build community, and share exercises and strategies. This site will become even richer as you and your peers log your own contributions! Keys Faculty Online is faculty training anytime you want it. Ask questions. Share ideas. Troubleshoot. Join the Keys author online faculty training sessions, available to all adopters through Course Compass, and you'll learn what other faculty using Keys are doing; be able to share exercises, syllabi, and teaching strategies; and view online videos of Joyce Bishop explaining specific learning activities. This new "Key" to your teaching success is available at no charge - no matter what your course size or location - and accessible online at www.keysfacultyonline.com.
