Abstract
The resources below explore the many ways that colleges and universities can provide professional development and other kinds of support for faculty who teach online and who, increasingly, live and work at a distance from campus. In many cases, faculty support uses the kinds of tools and services that instructors increasingly use in their teaching and learning, providing faculty with the opportunity to use teaching and learning technologies to learn how to better use those same technologies in their courses.
The "7 Things You Should Read About..." series from the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI) provides a concise set of resources on emerging learning technologies meant to provide a quick understanding on the topic. You may find other ELI resources useful in addressing teaching, learning, and technology issues at your institution. To learn more, please visit the ELI publications page.
