University and Junior College academics who have successfully completed the Master in Online Teacher course were recently presented with certificates by the Rector Prof. Alfred J. Vella.
This course provided academics with knowledge about online course design and online/blended teaching. The online programme of study, offered by the Illinois Online Network, required 48 weeks of part-time study. The Distance and E-Learning Committee, in collaboration with the Office for Human Resources Management & Development, provided a sponsorship to a number of academics to follow the course.
The Rector commended the academics for their interest and commitment to enhance their teaching with the use of technology. Pro-Rector Prof. Saviour Zammit, who is Chairperson of the Distance and E-Learning Committee, and members of the Committee also attended the event.
