FutureU's Faculty Web Book really uses the resources of the World Wide Web. As you go, you visit lots of other sites, carefully selected as the best ones for introducing each particular aspect of the online teaching and learning experience. Whenever the authors find a terrific new resource, they add it to the Web Book, just the way you might hand out a new reading in a course. This flexibility is part of the beauty of the online classroom.

It's also the challenge. All these riches can overwhelm, unless you know how to manage them. We're going to show you how.

The Faculty Web Book "models" the structure of a good course Web site—a structure you might want to adopt for your own courses. You can easily find your way around from page to page. The material comes at you in manageable chunks. The concepts are all tied together in a discussion forum where you can "talk" about what you are learning, ask questions, and learn even more.

Teaching online is a two-part job. First, you build a Web site for your course. Then, you interact with your students using the electronic media. The Faculty Web Book covers the art and craft of both.

It's complex. It's challenging. It's also fun. Smooth sailing and worth the trip. Just the way you want your own courses to be.

The Faculty Web Book covers big concepts as well as hands-on skills. It was written and designed by people who were teaching online long before the Internet became a household word. These are the same people who introduce the online classroom every year to healthcare executives enrolled in the American Hospital Association's fellowship programs—working adults, like you, who tell us...

..."Thank you for all your insight and extremely well-prepared and informative e-learning materials!"

The advent of the online classroom is like the invention of the book. It changes everything. Centuries ago, teachers learned how to integrate books into the learning experience. Today, you face an opportunity just as huge in its impact but demanding a lot more skill on your part
.

The Faculty Web Book is your guide to the unique environment of the online classroom, the special skills and insights that every instructor should pass on to students, and the complex set of steps involved in designing, developing, and implementing the online component of any course, whether or not you also meet face to face.

Teaching online isn't just a matter of learning some new software. The workload can quickly overwhelm, and the experience can definitely disappoint—unless you know the "tricks of the trade." The Faculty Web Book will give you everything you need to succeed while you also enjoy the ride.
