Abstract/Description
The transition to teaching remotely requires intentional reflection on what it takes to develop and sustain a sense of community and connection when joining an institution from a distance.
In this session, I reflect and share lessons learned from my transition from working face to face as a faculty member and international programs administrator to working remotely as a faculty member teaching in the University of Dayton’s EdD in Leadership for Organizations program. This transition has entailed not only a shift from face to face to remote work, but also a prolonged reflection on a commitment to transformative global learning. This value is a thread that connects my varied career experiences and continues to take new shape in the emerging realities of higher education.
Goals for Attendees
The goal of the session is to deepen understanding of the experiences of faculty members teaching and transitioning to a new institution remotely. I offer these reflections and lessons learned as a starting point for a discussion with other members of the UD community about opportunities and strategies for building community and engaging the strengths and experiences of remote employees.
