Online Pedagogy PRESIDENTIAL TASK FORCE SUBCOMMITTEE FOR PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT As a response to COVID-19, KSU established a Presidential Task Force beginning Summer 2020, with various subcommittees. CETL Scholarly Teaching was pleased to participate on the Presidential Task Force Subcommittee for Professional Development, headed by Dr. Pam Cole. Drs. DiPietro and Utschig both served on the committee throughout its existence. Their role was to serve as expert consultants as appropriate regarding content the committee discussed, bring a neutral perspective regarding they types of issues and challenges faculty were facing (due to CETL’s unique position as a non-evaluative, independent unit supporting instruction), and to provide or generate content for the website developed to support faculty. These contributions can be summarized in two main categories. In the first category, we contributed to data collection and interpretation to assist in decision making in the following ways: Survey distribution on remote instructional needs to representative instructors Interpretation of survey results considering the research on teaching and learning Providing summaries of issues/needs arising in CETL consultations In the second category, we contributed to the website techenhancedlearning. kennesaw.edu in the following ways: •
