Your Program Chair will establish the expectations for instructor performance during the term with regard to tasks such as interaction in the discussion boards, office hours/availability to students, response times, and so forth.
During each term, all CGHS instructors are expected to:
- Review the module pages for broken links prior to the start of each module in the course. If you find a broken link, please submit a Course Correction (using the link in IRMA) right away so the ID team can get this fixed. If you can suggest an alternative source of the information, that is always helpful.
- Complete the census based on the information provided by the academic advisors
- Post at least one weekly announcement.
- Respond to student requests in a timely manner.
- Contact the Academic Advisors with any concerns about student progress (i.e., not participating in the course, poor academic progress)
- Contact the Program Chair, Students, and the Academic Advisors if you have internet connectivity problems or if you are going to be inactive in the course (e.g., illness, traveling, natural disaster).
- Participate in the course, especially in discussion forums and the Ask Your Instructor forum, at least 5 days a week (one day must be a weekend day).
- Grade all assessments, including providing substantive feedback, within 96 hours of the due date.
More information on these and other instructor expectations is available in the Handbook.
