There are a lot of self-assessment tools designed to assess whether students are ready to take an online course but few that are designed to assess whether an instructor is prepared to teach online. I recently ran across this Self-Assessment Tool for Online Teaching Preparedness developed by Penn State. Instructors complete a short self-assessment that includes the following categories:
- Organization and Time Management
- Communicating Online
- Teaching & Online Experience
- Technical Skills
After completing the self-assessment, instructors receive detailed feedback via email based on their responses. Thanks Penn State!
