Wiling away the summer? Why not learn something new—or brush up on something—while you're wiling? @ONE for Training has desktop seminars as well as online courses available on a variety of subjects related to using technology in education.

The following seminars and courses are still available this summer:

Online Courses

Online courses last four to five weeks and are facilitated by expert colleagues. In addition to your facilitator, you will be joined by a cohort of your colleagues. Although courses begin and end on specific dates, the work is done asynchronously. That is, you can participate based on your own schedule as long as you complete assignments by their due dates. Each course costs just $50 for faculty and staff of California state supported schools, colleges or universities. Each course costs $100 for educators outside the California state systems.

The following online courses all start on Monday, August 2, 2010 at 8am:

  • Building Online Community with Social Media
  • Enhanced Podcasting for Teaching
  • Introduction to Online Teaching and Learning (2nd Session)
  • More about Moodle

The @ONE Project makes it easy for California Community College faculty and staff to learn about technology that will enhance student learning and success. @ONE’s programs provide training, online resources and research for free—or at a very low cost—thanks to funding from the California Community College Chancellor's Office Telecommunication and Technology Infrastructure Program. <>
