MOOCifying Faculty Development

For the Domain of One’s Own program at Emory University, we are planning to launch some faculty development workshops to run starting at the end of the semester and running through the first part of the summer. We’ll have one or two face to face meetings at the start, and then run the bulk of the sessions online. We don’t really plan for these workshops to be massive, and they probably won’t be openly available on the web either–at least not this first time through. However, we do want to use some of the techniques and energy of the cMOOC in these workshops.

Perhaps we can discuss getting faculty who aren’t necessarily already super excited about digital pedagogy to participate in a MOOCified workshop and how best to bring them on board. Do we need to approach these differently from the way we MOOCify classes with our undergrads?
