GENERAL TAKEAWAYS If you want to provide faculty and staff training using D2L consider the following: Include D2L training as a central component across your existing faculty and staff technology-training curriculum.

- 14. VOLUNTARY TRAINING Consider those things that help provide motivation for them to do so. Consider incentivizing D2L training Often times recognition, or an award--especially if it comes with some monetary incentive. Incorporate D2LTraining & proficiency as a component of Promotion andTenure. Tuesday, April 7, 2020

- 25. COVID-19 RESOURCES UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA Tuesday, April 7, 2020 We understand that some students and faculty may have challenges accessing the Internet from their homes and may not always be able to get to areas with Wi-Fi. We suggest some of the following options. The FCC has asked companies to work with Americans impacted by COVID-19 to help provide them with Internet access. Students and faculty may be able to access free Internet through service providers available in their area. Companies are also pledging to keep public Wi-Fi hot-spots open for any American who needs them. Additionally, some cell phone companies are extending unlimited data plans to existing customers for no additional charge.
- 26. COVID-19 RESOURCES FCC agreement stating that providers will waive late fees, not cutoff service for lack of payment, and open hot-spots. Comcast COVID-19 response: offers freeWi-Fi for 2 months to low income families plus all Xfinity hot-spots are free to the public during this time. Charter Free Internet Offer for 2 Months AT&T COVID-19 response: offers open hot-spots, unlimited data to existing customers, and $10/month plans to low income families. Verizon COVID-19 response: no special offers, but following the FCC agreement. Tuesday, April 7, 2020
- 27. COVID-19 RESOURCES Sprint COVID-19 response: follows FCC agreement, provides unlimited data to existing customers, and, startingTuesday, 3/17/2020, will allow all handsets to enable hot-spots for 60 days at no extra charge. T-Mobile COVID-19 response: follows FCC agreement, plus unlimited data to existing customers, and, coming soon, will allow all handsets to enable hot-spots for 60 days at no extra charge (I expect others will follow). Phone hot-spot. If you have a cell phone and data plan with Internet access, in some instances, your phone can be used as a hot-spot to share data with other devices such as a desktop, laptop, or iPad. Tuesday, April 7, 2020
- 28. COVID-19 RESOURCES USG Institutions: Consider developing campusWi-Fi “Parking Lot Hot-Spots” for students and faculty with broadband connectivity issues.To help mitigate low bandwidth/access issues, consider designating “Parking Lot Hot-Spots” in one or more locations on the campus. Similar to designated cell phone parking lots at airports, these would be zones where students and faculty can come to campus, park their cars, and access campus-based high- speed broadband, in isolation, in their own automobiles.This will necessitate a strong outdoorWi-Fi signal. Leadership and ITS should consider easy guest network access as well, in case their campus may be the closest location for students or faculty from another USG institution. Tuesday, April 7, 2020

- Accessibility – Faculty can access the training module/materials practically whenever, wherever and how ever they want. Accountability – D2L allows both Faculty and Trainers to document completion & mastery depending upon how you choose to certify completion. Active Learning – provides the flexibility that you can access and use the system while actively working/practicing in the training environment. Reference Guide – D2L provides access and archives. Courses can be set up to provide limited or unlimited access. We provided QuickStart type guides for all the processes. We can also provide secure access to vendor provided resources. Explain**

Identifying personnel who can talk with faculty and staff to support their efforts can be beneficial.

Other campuses require training for individuals who interact with the institution in certain ways (i.e., distance education training for any faculty who will teach through the institution's distributed learning vehicles).
