Call for Proposals: 7-Week Online Asynchronous Courses


The Office of the Provost, through its Teaching & Learning Innovation unit (TLI) and the Office of Online Learning and Academic Programs (OLAP), invites instructor proposals for the development of 7-week, online, asynchronous courses.

Proposed courses may either be designed to fulfill any area of Volunteer Core, the university’s new General Education curriculum, or serve as elective credit in a given major. These courses may carry 1, 1.5, 2, or 3 hours of credit, and are intended to be offered in the second session of major semesters (Fall and Spring). Course content may be specifically designed to take advantage of the 7-week format to address “special or variable topics”.


Reviews will begin on February 11th and be ongoing.
