I supported over 800 full-time and adjunct faculty members across the curriculum, training them how to teach using innovative instructional methods and technologies, especially for online and hybrid courses. My job included three main components: individual skill-training via workshops and instructor consultations; non-credit professional- development courses to prepare instructors to teach online; and project management of university efforts related to teaching and learning.

Faculty & Student Support
•	CTL Workshops (2/2012-present): I created and facilitate thirty 1-hour faculty workshops on topics ranging from teaching techniques to using tech tools (e.g., Jing, Camtasia) to an introduction to the Blackboard and Desire2Learn learning management systems (LMSes).
•	Online Teaching and Online Design courses (1/2012-present): I developed and teach two 40-hour non-credit training courses.

Online Design is a stipend-based by-dean-nomination seminar; I support participants in the creation of all of their materials for a fully online course.
•	Individual Training (1/2012-present): I help more than 60 instructors each semester with requests ranging from training on individual software titles to design and support for classroom and research initiatives.
•	Expanded Duties (1/2012-7/2012): During my first six months on the job as the Educational Technologist and Instructional Designer, I took on the responsibilities of the open Coordinator and System Administrator positions in addition to my own duties, performing tasks such as workshop scheduling, responding to help requests from faculty, creating databases, and troubleshooting  system issues in the LMS (including an urgent Blackboard outage on 2/27/2012).

The CTL will provide development software to be installed on MLRC computers, and I will train MLRC staff to support faculty on those software titles. Further, the MLRC and CTL are creating a separate audio and video recording room for faculty use.
•	Desire2Learn (D2L) Implementation Team (6/2012-present): I am the project manager for a team of 40 pilot instructors, 10 administrators, and 10 technical staff at NEIU who are supporting the installation and implementation of a D2L-hosted LMS for the university. I act as a single point of contact between the university and D2L, and I collect all project data to ensure that the project stays on time and takes potential risks into account. After a significant outage of our hosted services, I was also part of the negotiation team that came to a new Service-Level Agreement and offsets for problems experienced with D2L.
•	Electronic Survey Administration (2/2012-present): The CTL integrates electronic end-of-semester surveys via the EvaluationKIT tool with courses whose instructors use the LMS. I came into this process mid-stream, and performed troubleshooting to streamline the request, setup, and reporting processes.
•	Learning Management System (LMS) Task Force (1/2012-6/2012): I managed a cross-functional team of 24 faculty, 12 administrators, and 8 technical staff deciding which new LMS to adopt on campus.
•	CTL Web Site Redesign (1/2012-2/2013): The web site for the CTL had not been updated since 2005.

A working group of leaders from the CTL, Institutional Research, and the Registrar’s office is taking these recommendations to the Provost.
•	How to Choose Next Courses (1/2012): I drafted a work flow for department chairs and deans to help them decide which courses to offer as hybrid and online courses.

•	EDT 580 (Introduction to Authoring Software), a graduate course about how to create multimedia learning objects using PowerPoint, Flash, HTML/XML, Acrobat, and other authoring tools;
•	EDT 590 (Assistive Technology for Learning), a graduate course designed to give K-12 teacher candidates experience in the laws and best practices surrounding support for learners with physical and mental disabilities. I developed the master EDT 590 course from which other faculty teach;
•	EDT 600 (Educational Technology Planning), the capstone graduate Education-department course in which students develop their own technology integration plan and present it as the equivalent of a master’s thesis. I developed the master EDT 600 course from which other faculty teach;
•	ENGL 112 (Composition), an undergraduate course that demonstrates the basics of sentence structure, paragraph unity, grammar, and argumentation.
•	ENGL 135 (Advanced Composition), an undergraduate online course that focuses student efforts on increasing the professional qualities of their writing through scenario-based learning;

•	SPCH 277 (Interpersonal Communication), an undergraduate course designed to foster self-aware interaction among individuals and groups in face-to-face and virtual scenarios.

In many of my classes, I supported learners with physical disabilities (including cerebral palsy, multiple paraplegia, and burn victims) and geographic barriers (including students located in Alaska, Dominica, Mongolia, and Iran, as well as active-duty military personnel in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Philippines, Guam, and Germany).

Faculty & Student Support
•	DeVry University Faculty Award: I was cited for “most-timely feedback” during the January 2006 term.
•	In the March 2006 term, I piloted using Elluminate whiteboard conferencing software and Skype voice-over-IP software in order to host real-time online conversations with my students.
•	Between May and September 2006, I served on the ENGL 510 Revision Task Force, a group of designers, faculty, and administrators charged with updating the content and structure of the course to better reflect the professional-communication needs of students going into the university’s newest major areas, such as Health Information Technology, Computer Game Programming, and Educational Technology.
•	I was awarded Senior Faculty status on 12 Oct. 2006 for long-standing service to the university.

Internal Training & Certifications
•	Teaching Excellence Course Plus (TEC+) Facilitator Training Program: I am certified to train new online faculty (12 May 2004).
•	Super Service: training on maintaining a positive attitude, serving internal and external customers, and representing the university as a model to learners (21 Jan. 2007).
•	Developer Training Course (DTC): in preparation for developing EDT 590 for wholly online delivery, I completed an intensive three-week program on instructional design, web-course specifics, and DeVry University house style for lectures, assessments, and faculty resources (1-23 Dec. 2007).
•	Faculty College: Handling Student Issues: as part of ongoing professional development, I completed this best-practices refresher course on how best to respond to common student challenges in online courses, such as plagiarism, technical glitches, and communication mishaps (2 Feb. 2008).
•	Chicago Regional Online Faculty Meeting: I attended a face-to-face half-day training session to learn more about the university’s re-design to a system of academic colleges. I attended four training/feedback discussions on course-design principles, inter-generational differences, objective reinforcement, and engaging students in asynchronous discussions (16 May 2009).

Course Development
•	EDT 600 (Educational Technology Planning): After the original course developer was unable to fulfill her contract, the Director of Program Management for Technology called me in to develop this new course in the Education program on an emergency basis between May and June 2008. The course is designed around dual tracks of individual research into a capstone technology-integration proposal and review of objectives from previous courses in the Educational Technology program. During the development, I worked closely with an instructional designer (ID), an online curriculum manager (OCM), and the Education program dean, as both a subject-matter expert and content provider. The development came in under the deadline and was one of the first courses developed in which a single “real-world” scenario tied the various units together. 
•	EDT 590 (Assistive Technology for Learning): I developed this new course in the Education program between December 2007 and February 2008. The course includes units on disability rights, disability laws that apply to the classroom, the role of classroom teachers in Individual Educational Program (IEP) teams, universal design for learning (UDL), and assessment of assistive technology (AT) devices. During the development, I worked closely with the instructional designers, curriculum managers, and the Education program dean as a subject-matter expert and content provider.

Administrative Duties
•	Program Architect, Education Program (1 Mar. 2008-30 Jun. 2011). As one of two Program Architects for the Education program, I taught all of the courses in the program on a rotating basis in order to familiarize myself with their content, design, and methodology. Each term, I held conference calls with all faculty members who were teaching the courses for which I am the PA in order to discuss functional and best-practice improvements. Each term, I also entered each course and reviewed the content for grammar, style, currency, and content accuracy. At the end of each term, I reviewed the student evaluations of each course and implemented improvements to the “master” course shells based on student feedback. In my capacity as PA, I reported directly to the Program Dean for the College of Liberal Arts & Science. The Program Architect role was phased out by the university on 1 Jul. 2011.
•	Faculty Communication Team Focus Group (1 Oct. 2008-1 Oct. 2010). As part of a cross-functional group of faculty with varying backgrounds and interests, I acted as a “sounding board” for proposed communications from the administration to the faculty regarding new initiatives and projects.

								Support Optimization Learning & 
								Development (312) 653-4007

As part of the Learning, Talent, & Communication area of HCSC’s Strategic Services Optimization (SSO) Division, I created, maintained, and updated an online library of reference documents that support the work of more than 1,600 employees. I utilized library-science techniques in order to review and approve draft content from 120 contributors based in 44 support units of the company. A large part of my responsibilities came from the fulfillment of more than 300 project-based Work Requests from various areas of the corporation.

Using Interwoven’s TeamSite content-management system (CMS), I created new internal-library records and updated existing records with current policy and work-flow information at the request of managers and supervisors in front-line positions company-wide. I worked closely with internal customers at all levels of the corporation (Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) in order to ensure that library content was kept up-to-date and relevant to the needs of various internal customers.

In my role as a subject-matter expert (SME), I performed statistical research about our current databases in order to support a weeding effort to remove duplicate content and to consolidate related records. I also discovered a flaw in the design of the database structure that was creating costly problems for the company, and spearheaded the effort to remedy the error and perform workarounds to address already-damaged content records.

As a content-management professional, I led the documentation and research efforts for several division-wide projects. For example, a new communication system was released in mid-2011 to allow different Blue Cross plans to communicate more quickly, and I worked closely with staff at all levels of the business, from customer advocates to divisional vice-presidents. Another example of teamwork was a special two-month project in which I and a colleague consolidated system-prompt error messages to remove duplication and conflicting content.

I served as a formal mentor to three new members of our team, and I taught the in-house training class for new content contributors. Relying on my humanities background, I was often called on to coach units or work groups on good writing practices, and I was a go-to resource for copy-editing, proofreading, and detail review on projects.

I also responded to concerns sent to a unit-wide e-mail in-box, led team and unit meetings, and mentored the training initiatives of twenty-three Instructional-Design colleagues in our unit.

Internal Work Groups & Committees
•	Audio Work Group (7/9/2007-3/14/2008): I worked with four colleagues to research, purchase, and implement professional-grade audio-recording equipment for use in computer-based training (CBT) modules. I also drafted the audio-use work flow and script templates used in the instructional-design development process. I now serve as voice-over talent for project audio recording, and I utilize ProTools recording and editing software in order to engineer audio clips for projects.
•	Developmental Session Planning Committee, Program Team (4/7/2008-9/24/2008): I collaborated with nine colleagues in order to plan, develop, and present professional-development sessions focused on business goals, health and wellness, and leadership skills at a 3-days area-wide conference. The Program Team specifically created and implemented the activities for 115 colleagues over the 1.5-day conference.
•	Standards and Practices Work Group (8/20/2007-12/2011; chair 8/20/2007-1/25/2008): In the initial six months of this Work Group, I led eight colleagues in re-designing and documenting the internal practices, house style, best practices, and work flow guidelines and standards for all HCSC employees who use the Interwoven TeamSite content management system to contribute records to the corporate content library. As part of the work group’s efforts, I drafted a Style Guide, Content Formatting Standards, and a Bulletin Board Work Flow Guide for items that cannot be housed in the main online database.
•	Program Manager (11/21/2008-12/2011): Each professional on the team of content-management specialists is responsible for leading several individual projects.  In addition to my own projects, I am responsible for supporting all nine of the other team members’ projects, and ensuring that all projects on our team receive needed resources and are completed on time.
•	Content Quality Approval Work Group (2/2/2009-12/2011): I serve on a team of four content-management professionals who pull a monthly sample of work created by the team and review it for grammar, style, clarity, and adherence to our in-house content-formatting standards.
•	Performance Support Work Group (3/5/2009-12/2011): This is an inter-departmental team dedicated to creating “just in time” point-of-need tools to assist users of various systems.
•	BlueSource Infusion Work Group (3/23/2009-5/19/2009): The content-management team created standards for learning-design interfaces, so that all lessons and training would incorporate a module on how to search in the company’s BlueSource reference tool for further information and assistance.

Using PC software and specialized database systems, I fielded incoming calls from nationwide health-care providers in order to answer questions and resolve problems related to health-insurance benefits, eligibility, claims, and payments. As a level-II PA, I also resolved complex-claim issues and adjustments, finalizing an average of $45,000.00 per day in refunds, payments, and credits. Beginning in June 2006, I was selected to be a member of a five-person team of “Untouchables” tasked with reducing HCSC’s inventory of aged claims at other Blue Cross plans nationwide.

This position required information-gathering and interpretation skills—germane to library-science training—in order to assist doctors and hospitals. This position in the not-for-profit sector required significant professional trust and responsibility in handling confidential health information and releasing large-sum payments to providers.

I met Barry in 2012 when he gave the keynote speech at the Faculty Summer Institute at the University of Illinois. Since then, we’ve worked closely on several projects to help faculty members and professional-development staff to use the Brightspace learning management system most effectively. Barry’s background is in educational theory, and I’ve presented webinars and live sessions for Desire2Learn’s Teaching and Learning community, at regional company events, and at their annual international user’s conference, where Barry is the emcee. Barry can talk about how I give back to my profession, my expertise in faculty development, and my speaking, writing, and visual-design skills.

I met Janet in 2000 at the inaugural Distance Learning Administration conference in Pine Mountain, GA. I was an attendee and Janet was part of the conference team. The conference has been held every year since then, and I’ve become a “regular,” collaborating with Janet ad her team on many projects that are now considered foundational professional-development resources, including articles and seminars on copyright, evaluation of online teaching, and outreach to learners across the ability spectrum. Janet has invited me to speak to her faculty members twice, and she can speak to my ability to support faculty members across disciplines and institutions, and my drive to serve others in my profession.

Edmund was my supervisor at Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago from 2012 through 2016, and I benefited greatly from working with him. He trusted me with several key projects, including the university’s change to a new learning-management system and the adoption of fully-online courses and programs across the curriculum. Edmund can speak to my work ethic, drive, initiative, ability to showcase the work of faculty members, and ability to achieve results with limited human and capital resources.

I met Scott in 2012 when I joined the steering committee for the University of Illinois’ Faculty Summer Institute. Scott and I serve on the conference’s evaluation task force, and I also taught and developed courses for Scott’s Illinois Online Network (ION) professional-certification program. Scott can speak to my collegiality, faculty-development expertise, and project-management skills.

I first met Newton Key in 2013 when he attended a session I was presenting on “The 104 Best Practices in the Desire2Learn learning management system,” and we connected through our shared taste in music and history. Newton is a teaching innovator, always looking for ways to go beyond the classroom and beyond traditional learning structures. He’s the guy on campus who is always experimenting, setting up learning communities, and generally pushing the boundaries of technology, people, and systems. Newton can speak to my research curiosity and desire to collaborate with colleagues from across disciplines.

Distance Education and Teaching with Technology

Dr. Jackie Kyger (colleague, former supervisor) 
Assistant Professor, College of Education 
Ashford University 
8620 Spectrum Center Blvd. 
San Diego, CA 92123 
(210) 568-9117 
Jackie.Kyger@ashford.edu 

Jackie and I met in 2003 when we attended our new-faculty training session for DeVry University in Chicago. I can still remember his introduction to the group; he said he had a goal of “wearing one of those blue shirts” that the New Faculty Trainers were wearing. On his way to becoming Associate Dean of Faculty and Programs for DeVry Online, Jackie was the Dean for the then-brand-new Educational Technology master’s program, and I was glad to be a part of the foundational team that got that program up and running—I taught for the program for ten years, and I was one of the two Program Architects for the degree, working with administrators and faculty members to keep the course content current, challenging, and consistent. Because of our relationship outside of our professional roles, I’m proud to count Jackie as a friend and mentor. Jackie has served as an example to me about dedication, hard work, striving toward personal and professional goals, and finding balance in one’s life. He can speak to my sense of personal mission, my ability to respond positively to change, and my process-oriented team focus.

National Assistant Dean 
DeVry University Online

bmanning@devry.edu 

Ben came on board as the Dean over the Educational Technology (EDT) program in 2008, as it was in transition, and he’s been great to work with. Because I was with the program since its inception, I’ve been able to act as one of the “institutional memories” and help Ben to continue the program’s successes. I am the Program Architect for seven EDT courses, and I continue to teach in the program, as well. Ben can speak to my ability to respond quickly to challenges and my flexibility in meeting the needs of designers, faculty, support staff, and students.

Mary Kay’s course in library material preservation and conservation inspired me to study special-collections librarianship further. We met as colleagues through the William Morris Society, became teacher and student, and we are now friends. Mary Kay can talk about my skills in disaster preparedness, my preservation bench-work abilities, my scholarly record, and my editing and web-design expertise.

jandchanes@aol.com 

John was my supervisor while I was a teaching fellow, and he has seen and evaluated my skill in teaching both composition and lit survey courses, my ability to work with students one-on-one in the writing center, and my enthusiasm to support my own and my colleagues’ teaching with technology.

keenan@duq.edu 

Jay Keenan and I team-taught courses together at Duquesne, and he can vouch for my attention to detail, classroom presence, and willingness to allow students to help to define their own learning. I also worked with Jay as a colleague when he directed and acted in several university productions in which I also took part, many under his direction, and some as a fellow actor.

Dr. Frederick Newberry (dissertation director) 
Professor of English, Emeritus 
Duquesne University 
600 Forbes Avenue 
Pittsburgh, PA 15282 
(412) 396-5156 
newberryf@duq.edu 

I took courses from Fred in nineteenth-century American literature, and I chose him to direct my dissertation work because of his meticulous editing skills (he is the editor of the Hawthorne Review) and his polished writing style. I learned from Fred the art of being pithy, and he can speak to my organizational skills, scholarly publication and presentation record, and to my involvement in departmental concerns.

Dr. Samuel Tindall (dissertation co-director) 
Professor of English, Emeritus 
Duquesne University 
600 Forbes Avenue 
Pittsburgh, PA 15282 
(412) 396-6427 
tindall@duq.edu 

I took several courses on Victorian topics with Sam, and he mentored me throughout my Ph.D. course work. I asked Sam to be a co-director of my dissertation because of his knowledge of the subject area and his enthusiasm for bibliographic work. Sam can best talk about my commitment to service, the close relationship between my research and my teaching, and my ability to work collaboratively with others on projects.

Voice-Over

Chicago, IL 60614 
(773) 325-7588 
svyverma@depaul.edu 

I completed a professional certificate program in Voice-Over with Scott, and his years of experience in radio and as a voice-over talent himself helped me to learn the ropes not only of being in front of the microphone, but he also taught me the essentials of studio work, too. Scott produced my very first voice-over demos, and I continue to rely on him as a friend and mentor.

Mark is the president of the William Morris Society in the United States, on whose governing committee I served from 1997 to 2007. Mark is an avid book collector and bibliographer, and we share many scholarly interests such as the Pre-Raphaelite, Aesthetic, and Arts and Crafts movements. Mark can talk about my dedication to helping others through teaching and research, speak to my skills as a webmaster and visual designer, as well as discuss my leadership qualities.

stetzm@udel.edu 

I met Margaret when she was a professor in the English Department at Georgetown University back in 1997. Her scholarship on the late-nineteenth-century women’s movement continues to be a strong influence on my own work, and I rely on Margaret for sage advice and good editing tips. Over the years, we have collaborated on a volume of essays together, and I count Margaret as one of the few scholars whom I truly admire. Margaret can attest to my scholarly rigor, editing capabilities, and ability to meet strict deadlines.
