#DigPINS: A Participatory Faculty Development Experience

#DigPINS is an approach to faculty development that offers the opportunity to explore and develop an identity and presence online by participating in various individual and networking activities. This four-week online course provides flexibility for the expected time commitment and models ways to engage and learn in online spaces. Over the four weeks, the faculty cohort explores the topics of digital pedagogy, identity, networks, and scholarship. They do this through readings, blogging, speaking with special guests in open video chats, live Twitter chats, and other methods.

Outcomes: Identify various ways to engage faculty in a conversation about digital identity * Present opportunities to participate in activities that help build a personal learning network * Implement strategies to connect digital identity to teaching and scholarship
