NIU presented on their strategy for offering online professional development for faculty using a cross-platform approach. They chose to deliver their Teaching Effectiveness Institute online using Blackboard and its mobile apps. This allowed more faculty to attend, saved travel costs, and modeled effective online teaching practices. Lessons learned included the success of the online format, need for backup activities, and managing time between sessions. Their next steps are to repeat the model, reuse content, try new formats, and possibly invite outside speakers.
