  I work with Vista Higher Learning

  a specialized language publishing company

  to train faculty across the nation on using their platform

  the Supersite

  in order to help students develop language skills using advanced online tools. I also have the pleasure of sharing best practices for online learning

  teaching tips

  and assessment strategies with these professors and am the beneficiary of their wonderful ideas. VHL is known for incorporating instructor feedback into their platform design

  so it is fulfilling to help contribute to that process. They offer a variety of ways to deliver unique instructor-created content and to connect with students. I often present on the best use of these tools. I have also had the pleasure of creating custom syllabi

  writing instructor guides and recording online training how-to videos.
