Faculty Bootcamp at Carroll University
Before Bootcamp...
“Do I need an upgrade?”
“I didn’t do anything...the file
       just vanished...”
“Will this delete my files?”
“You are going too fast...!
     what’s a url?”
“Please...”
Nothing like a little help and encouragement
            to build confidence
Bootcamps started as 3-day workshops to
help faculty redesign a f2f course for online.
Each Bootcamp had a max of 4 participants

Bootcampers were paid a stipend

Bootcampers focused attention to 1 course
