Through instructors’ stories we found concrete
examples of strategies for balancing workload that can fit a wide variety of
settings and apply to many different contexts. You can find them in our book Managing Online Instructor Workload:
Strategies for Finding Balance and Success http://www.einterface.me/eInterface.me/Books.html
You may identify with some of these stories, but many will be new to you. While some of the instructors in our examples are prioritizing
their time in an efficient way, others are still discovering new ways to
effectively manage their workload.
Next week, we’ll look at how to determine the types
of course tasks for online teaching and how they can be accomplished within a
design framework. For your online course, designing requires planning,
intention, and design and an understanding of the online environment. By
looking at workload from a design perspective, instructors can better manage
and prioritize their time.
