Bellisairo College of Communications as an adjunct, please refer to our list of classes to see which ones we are currently accepting applications for.
\r\n\r\n\tPlease note: if you are not familiar with Penn State there are two different academic units that teach communications.
\r\n\r\n\tThe Bellisario College teaches professional communications:
\r\n\r\n\tThe Department of Communication Arts and Sciences, housed in the College of the Liberal Arts, teaches the following. If you are interested in any of these subjects, please contact them directly.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tWelcome to online teaching! While there are many similarities between online and face-to-face teaching, there are also many differences. This site will provide you with important information about teaching online at Penn State.
\r\n\tThe online learning environment presents a unique set of challenges that require clear definition of instructor performance. The following Instructor Performance Expectations are considered best practices. They identify the minimum level of interaction and management needed between students and instructors to maintain a quality online learning environment.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tAS A COURSE INSTRUCTOR, IT IS ANTICIPATED THAT YOU WILL…
\r\n\r\n\tResearch has shown that the strongest influence on whether a student completes an end-of-course survey is you, the instructor! Please send your students a note encouraging them to complete the survey and assuring them that the information that will be used to improve the course is important.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tManaging student expectations is an important task as your course begins. You will be doing a great deal to help ensure your course runs smoothly and that your students know you are there for them by providing them with information about key elements of your course, such as:
\r\n\tThere are various areas in your online course that can be helpful in communicating this information to your students. The course syllabus should include your course grading rubric, as well as any specific grading policies that you follow. Weekly emails or creating announcements using the announcements feature (located under the Communications Tab and Resources tab in ANGEL) of your course Web site is another way in which you can communicate with your students. This site can be updated regularly to help you keep your students informed about your virtual office hours, changes to your schedule, lesson expectations, and grading/communication turnaround time.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tCOMPENSATION
\r\n\tCompensation for online teaching varies widely across the University system. Current faculty may be teaching online as part of their normal teaching load, while others may receive supplemental pay for teaching that exceeds their normal duties. Still other individuals may be hired as independent contractors (adjuncts) by an academic department. Please contact your supervisor or academic department financial officer if you have questions regarding your payment for your online teaching assignment.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tFAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT (FERPA) TRAINING
\r\n\r\n\tAll employees who will be accessing the data warehouse or access to any database containing student data must complete a FERPA quiz. For more information about FERPA and this policy, see the “FERPA Tutorial” page.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\t“REPORTING CHILD ABUSE” TRAINING
\r\n\tPenn State requires all employees to take training on how to recognize and report suspected child abuse, through Policy AD72. Students and volunteers who are considered \"authorized adults\" (those who work with children and have responsibility for children's programs) also are required to take the training.
\r\n\tThe mandatory training course, \"Building a Safe Penn State: Reporting Child Abuse,\" is available online. For complete details about this training requirement, see the “About the Content for the online Reporting Child Abuse Training” Web page.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tFaculty teaching online courses need to have consistent and predictable access to the same technology as is required for student participation. Course design and technology requires access to high-speed Internet access (DSL, cable modem, or satellite). Please refer to the World Campus list of “Technical Requirements” to make sure that you meet the technical requirements.
\r\n\tFor technical assistance with your online course, contact your campus Help Desk. If you are unsure where to turn, contact the IT Service Desk at mailto:ITServiceDesk@psu.edu or (814) 865-HELP and they will put you in contact with the individuals who can help you!
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\t
\r\n\tINSTRUCTIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AGREEMENTS
\r\n\tOnline course materials are governed by University Policy IP03 Courseware.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tENROLLMENT CAPS AND INSTRUCTOR WORKLOAD
\r\n\tAll semester-based courses have maximum section sizes. The World Campus works with each academic department to set enrollment caps that are appropriate for the course topic and online course design.
\r\n\tIn general, the minimum enrollment for a course to run is 10 students but exceptions are sometimes made in both directions (a few more or a few less). If your course will be cancelled due to low enrollment, Shannon Kennan will contact you as soon as possible.
\r\n\r\n\tCOMM also maintains control over the maximum number of students enrolled in a course. This number varies depending on the type of course, level and curriculum. But, with few exceptions, we will not add more students to your course than its posted limit.
\r\n\r\n\tTo view which courses are being offered each semester and monitor enrollment, go to: http://schedule.psu.edu/
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tSTUDENT SCHEDULING FOR WORLD CAMPUS COURSES
\r\n\tAll students in semester-based courses schedule through the University’s eLion online registration, according to the priority registration schedule. Students currently enrolled at other campuses cannot use the online system to register for online courses at other campuses (including the World Campus); these students must contact Student Enrollment Services to request registration.
\r\n\tPlease refer all such requests to the World Campus Office of Student Enrollment Services (800 252-3592; registrar@outreach.psu.edu) rather than approving these requests, since the availability of materials needs to be confirmed before increasing enrollment caps. In addition, the course may already have a waiting list of students who need your course for graduation. You may also want to encourage students to use the “Watch” feature in eLion.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tOVERRIDES
\r\n\tPlease do not approve students into your courses as an override without consulting with Shannon Kennan (skennan@psu.edu) first. As mentioned above, we closely monitor and guard the upper enrollment levels of all of our courses because the enrollment caps are set to ensure the highest possible educational quality. Approving two or three extra students as overrides may not seem like much, but it adds time onto your weekly grading load as well as divides your attention among more students. Any time you have students requesting an override, please notify Shannon.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tCOURSE PREREQUISITES
\r\n\tPenn State’s registration system does not currently prevent students from scheduling courses for which they have not completed the prerequisites. Therefore, instructors are encouraged to review student prerequisites at the beginning of the course. eLion provides instructors with a list of students who have not met the prerequisites. [From the left side bar in eLion, select “Prereq Class List.”]
\r\n\tIf you believe that specific prerequisites are imperative, you may want to send an email to these students to emphasize the importance of completing course prerequisites. Sometimes a student’s life experiences may convince an instructor that a specific student can successfully complete the course without the prerequisite. Penn State is developing strategies to incorporate prior learning through Prior Learning Assessment (PLA). To learn more about PLA, visit a conversation featuring Dr. Pat Shope, Enrollment Services Specialist in the Adult Learner Advocacy Office at Penn State Outreach and Online Education.
\r\n\r\n\tInstructors have the prerogative to refuse admission to a class if it appears obvious that this will not be a successful learning experience for the student. In such cases, students should be told to drop the course via eLion if the course is in eLion. If students do not comply by dropping the course, please contact your department office (for resident education courses) or the World Campus Registrar (for World Campus courses) for assistance.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tCOURSE DROPS
\r\n\tIf students in your class approach you about the procedure for dropping a course, please encourage them to discuss this action with an advisor to assure that dropping the course will not negatively impact progress to degree or financial aid eligibility. Further down, you will find more information on the financial ramifications for student drops related to grade reporting.
\r\n\tFor resident education students: See the information on Dropping Courses from the Office of the University Registrar.
\r\n\r\n\tFor World Campus students: The World Campus policy and procedures for dropping a course are posted on the Student Enrollment Services Web site. During the standard drop-add period, drops and adds can be made directly by students through eLion.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tEvery College and campus has its own Academic Integrity policy and procedure. It is important that you find the policy to which your academic unit adheres so that you know the parameters, definitions, and procedures. The World Campus does not have a separate academic integrity policy and upholds the University policy and College processes.
\r\n\tThere are many helpful resources related to academic integrity:
\r\n\r\n\tFAIR USE
\r\n\tA frequent concern is use of copyrighted material in your course. As you are teaching, you may locate items such as articles, handouts, or diagrams that you wish to send out to students enrolled in your course. One of the issues that the University asks us to be very careful of, for legal reasons, is the inclusion of externally copyrighted materials. If any article or handout you wish to use has been pulled from a textbook, journal, or other external source, it may need to be cleared for copyright permission before it can be distributed to students. The clearance process can take time and can significantly add to the cost of course materials.
\r\n\tFactors related to fair use should be examined to determine whether the items you wish to use require clearance. Some items, such as materials produced by the government or items that have passed out of copyright protection, are available for use without going through the formal clearance process. There are also individuals and organizations that create useful materials and clearly indicate that those materials may be used “for educational purposes.” Some publishers do not permit their publications to be placed in an electronic environment such as the Web; others stipulate that items may be used if the site is protected in some manner.
\r\n\r\n\tOne option to consider is to use the Electronic Reserve system through the University Libraries. The library can provide fair and accessible online resources for courses. For more information on use of the eReserve system, visit the “Electronic Reserve Request Form” page.
\r\n\r\n\tFor additional information, please visit the Copyright Perspectives Fair Use Web site.
\r\n\r\n\tIf you are unsure where to find the information you need to determine what materials you can use in your course that fall within fair use, consult with your instructional designer or your College librarian.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tSTUDENT USE OF COPYRIGHTED MATERIALS
\r\n\tIf your students create Web pages of their own as part of their course work, it would be beneficial to discuss with them in advance the liability that can arise regarding the placement of copyrighted materials – such as software, film or music clips, photos or articles from magazines – on their Web sites. Students, instructors, and employees of the University who violate copyright law and other conduct standards place the University in legal jeopardy. Further, according to Policy AD20 Computer and Network Security, “Transmitting or making accessible offensive, obscene or harassing materials, and transmitting or making accessible chain letters, etc., are prohibited.”
\r\n\tFaculty who become aware of a potential problem regarding the electronic distribution of copyrighted materials or other materials that would violate University computing policies are advised to contact the student and request that he or she remove it, or that such behavior immediately desist. Misuse of University resources such as Web space and electronic mail accounts can result in the suspension of computing privileges for the offending user.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tPUBLIC ACCESS TO YOUR COURSE
\r\n\tStudent data (such as name, address, major, etc.) is protected by The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA). This Act indicates that information from records, files, and data directly related to a student shall not be disclosed by any means (including telephone) to individuals or agencies outside the University without the signed, dated consent of the student in writing, except pursuant to a lawful subpoena or court order. By sharing course postings, e-mails, assignment submissions, etc., you would be in danger of violating a student’s rights.
\r\n\tCheck with your academic administrative unit for alternative options for granting public access to or sharing student content in your course.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tUNIVERSITY GRADING POLICIES
\r\n\tInstructors are encouraged to become familiar with Faculty Senate Policies 47-00, 48-00, and 49-00 regarding grades. Please pay particular attention to the two main components of policy 47-20, Basis for Grades:
\r\n\tPOSTING GRADES IN ELION
\r\n\r\n\t![\"secure](\"{asset:2679:url||/assets/uploads/SecureIDToken.jpg}\")
\r\n\tWithin 48 hours after the final exam or final assessment of the course, student grades must be entered by instructors in eLion, a Web-based service for students, advisors, faculty, and parents that provides secure real-time access to academic and financial records in the University's administrative database. Access to eLion is automatically granted when you are identified as the instructor for a course. (If you do not have access, check with your academic department.)
\r\n\r\n\tIn COMM, there is some flexibility with the 48-hour rule. For example, if you are teaching a course where the final assessment is a multiple-choice exam you will need to have grades entered in eLion within 48 hours. If you are teaching a course where the final project is a 10-page research paper you may need longer than 48-hours to finish grading.
\r\n\r\n\tAlways enter graduating seniors’ grades into eLion as soon as possible. They need their grades reported promptly to meet the Registrar’s graduation deadlines (see below).
\r\n\r\n\tIn order to input your course grades through eLion, you will need a securID token (also referred to as a “second factor authentication token”) Please contact your academic department to obtain this token (see above).
\r\n\r\n\tAt the end of the semester, you will receive an automated e-mail message indicating that you can submit your final course grades to eLion. Please note that you cannot submit grades until the semester ends, which is the timing of the automated e-mail message. Your first step in reporting grades is to log in at the eLion Web site. (Choose the “Faculty” link from the main screen.)
\r\n\r\n\tNeed help? See “Help for Grade Entry”on eLion.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tELION GRADE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
\r\n\tIf a student seems to have stopped participating in your course, does not respond to you, and their grade is reported as an “F”, their financial aid must be reviewed to fulfill the federal regulations of Return to Title IV funds (federal grants and loans).
\r\n\tWhen a grade of \"F\" is assigned, the Office of Student Aid must make a determination whether or not the grade was \"earned\" or the result of a student \"walking away\" from the class (ceasing enrollment) without taking the proper academic action (dropping the class).
\r\n\r\n\tNoting the student's Last Date of Attendance (LDA) in a class is a critical component in the federal review of a student record in the determination of student aid adjustments. The LDA should be recorded as the last day of participation in an academically-related activity. Simply logging in to the course isn't sufficient. The accurate reporting of student’s LDA, when assigning the “F” grade, supports the University’s responsibility in compliance with federal regulations.
\r\n\r\n\tFor more information visit the “eLion Grade Reporting” site.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tGRADES FOR GRADUATING SENIORS
\r\n\tStudents who plan to graduate are advised to communicate directly with their instructors to ensure that all work can be completed and graded in time for graduation. It may be necessary for a student to submit assignments or take exams early in order to assure that you have time to determine a final grade.
\r\n\tThe deadline for instructors to post final course grades in eLion for graduating students is typically the Wednesday before commencement, though it may vary—your graduation list letter will state the exact date that grades are due for graduating seniors.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tDEFERRED GRADES
\r\n\tA student can request a deferred grade (DF) if he or she is “prevented from completing a course within the prescribed time” (University Policy 48-40). These requests may be made due to illness (their own or a family member’s), injury, death in the family, traumatic life events, natural disasters, or similar circumstances.
\r\n\tDeferred grades are governed by University Policy 48-40: Deferred Grades. All requests for deferred grades are negotiated between you and your students, provided the student has completed the requisite minimum portion of the course (as defined by the college where the course originates). Dates and deadlines for deferred grades can be found at the University Registrar Web site.
\r\n\r\n\tThere are positive and negative reasons for granting a DF. Positive reasons for the student is time to cope with the situation that prompted the DF and to finish the course without losing money or academic credit. However, the student must complete the work independently without the support of a cohort or much attention from the instructor. A negative effect for the instructor is a carry-over of grading responsibilities once the student turns in his or her delayed assignments.
\r\n\r\n\tIt is important to work with the student and to establish a communication plan and a clear schedule for completion. At the undergraduate level, all coursework must be complete and grades must be entered into eLion ten weeks after the course end date. If the course is not completed within the agreed-upon time frame, you should plan to submit the student’s final grade based on completed lessons.
\r\n\r\n\tIf you agree to grant a deferred grade, post \"DF\" for the grade in eLion at the end of the semester. DF grades automatically convert to an F if they are not updated by the deadline. Once the grade has automatically changed to an F, you will still have one academic year to submit a change of grade. If you wish to change a grade more than one academic year after the course was offered, you will need to pursue this change through the Faculty Senate.
\r\n\r\n\tStudents who have not finished during the allotted amount of time may request an extension of the deferred grade. Normally the student should have some kind of extenuating circumstance to justify such an additional extension. If you approve the extension, please contact Student Enrollment Services; the new approved end date of the course will be need to be recorded, as this is reported to the University Registrar.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tPOLICY INFORMATION FOR WORLD CAMPUS STUDENTS
\r\n\tWorld Campus students have access to student policies via their Student Enrollment Services Web site. This site includes information on World Campus policies and procedures for actions such as academic integrity, course drops, deferred grades, and the grading system, as well as general information on time management, study habits, and writing skills. Faculty are encouraged to review these policies prior to beginning to teach online.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tHANDLING PROCTORED EXAMS FOR WORLD CAMPUS STUDENTS
\r\n\tIn World Campus delivered courses that utilize proctored exams, instructors should put the exam grades in the ANGEL grade book and provide any feedback to students through ANGEL. The exams are not made available to the student, as the exams do not change each semester and may be used again. For review purposes, a student may contact the World Campus Student Services Office to request that the exam be sent back to the proctor. The student may then review the exam with their proctor. If the student has any questions regarding the exam, they can be written on the exam or an additional piece of paper. The exam and any questions should then be returned to World Campus Student Services, where they will be forwarded to the instructor. Under no circumstances are students permitted to make copies of exam content.
\r\n\tFor more information on proctored exams through the World Campus, visit the “Taking Exams and Securing a Proctor” Web site.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tMAKING MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR ONLINE COURSE
\r\n\tAs an instructor you may be interested in making modifications to your course as you teach throughout the semester. However, before making any content-related changes or additions you should contact your department head or the instructional designer (if provided) for the course, as your academic unit may have special policies and procedures for how such changes are made. Some academic units may not allow individual instructors to make any changes to a particular online course, while others may provide instructors with the freedom to change, update or personalize the content. It is important for you to know the parameters your academic unit has in place.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tWORKING WITH AN INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGNER
\r\n\tMost online courses at Penn State are developed with the assistance of an instructional designer (also known as a “learning designer”). An instructional designer (ID) is an education expert who specializes in pedagogy and technology. Instructional designers work with faculty content experts to create online courses that are informed by tested learning theories, research, and practices. In addition to helping develop an online course, the ID often assists with the delivery of the course each semester by getting it ready for new instructors and handling technical issues. Your ID might be housed within your academic unit or may work for the World Campus.
\r\n\t
\r\n\t
\r\n\tAssuming you have the liberty to make changes to the online course you are teaching, your instructional designer can explain the structure of the course and advise you of potential pitfalls and ramifications such as:
\r\n\tIn addition, if your desired modifications are beyond small changes your instructional designer may direct you to your department head or the World Campus program manager for your course to discuss the timing of a larger revision.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tPOSTING OF REQUIRED COURSE MATERIALS, INCLUDING TECHNOLOGIES
\r\n\tThe Higher Education Opportunity Act (Public Law 110-315) requires that the University post all materials, technology requirements, and costs at the time a course becomes available on the Schedule of Courses and, if applicable, the World Campus Course Catalog. Any changes to, or removal of, previously released material will affect both the course content and student finances. Changes may also affect the technological relationships within the course. For this reason, instructors should never change materials or technology related to a course without first consulting the administrative unit overseeing the course.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tACCESS AFTER THE COURSE ENDS
\r\n\tUnless you deactivate the course site, students (and you) will continue to have access to your password-protected course materials for one year from the last day of the course, provided their Penn State Access user ID and password remain valid. (Students must continue to be registered for Penn State courses in order to maintain a valid Penn State Access account.)
\r\n\tEven after your course has officially ended, some students will continue to check back into the course to review material and check their grades. Because you will not continue to check into the course every day, you should post a message to your course announcements, discussion group, and/or e-mail to let your students know that if they need you after that date, they should contact you directly through e-mail. Be sure that your students have your University e-mail address. This way, a student is discouraged to post something to the course bulletin board or to your course-specific e-mail account expecting an answer from you.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tSAVING STUDENT WORK
\r\n\tIn the future you may wish to distribute to your students examples of “exceptional” student essays, papers, etc., from past offerings of the course. This is a good idea, as it permits students currently enrolled in the course to develop a better understanding of your expectations for their performance. Students frequently comment on the usefulness of such examples, and request that more such examples be included in online courses. One of the issues that you need to consider is that ownership of student work submitted during participation in a course still rests with the student. If you wish to distribute such items or include them in your course in an ongoing manner (for example, by placing them on a course Web site), you should clear the use of these items with the original authors (getting such permission in writing is a good idea). It would also be a good idea to find out whether the student wishes to have his/her name associated with an example when it is used in the course.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tPROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESOURCES
\r\n\tUnits across the University offer a wealth of professional development resources related to teaching and learning online. The Web Learning @ Penn State Web site includes a listing of many of these resources, from web-based materials to speaker series and workshops.
\r\n\t
\r\n\r\n\tWORLD CAMPUS OPPORTUNITIES
\r\n\tWorld Campus Faculty Development offers online courses to provide faculty with an “online student experience” while exploring a rich variety of critical topics necessary for mastery in the online classroom.
\r\n\tThe Certificate for Online Teaching is a professional development program to prepare for online teaching success. This fully online, five course series provides faculty an “online student experience” while exploring a rich variety of critical topics necessary for mastery in the online classroom.
\r\n\r\n\tThe Penn State World Campus Faculty Convocation is a gathering of online faculty and teaching and learning practitioners to focus on trends and ideas concerning online education. This is an opportunity to create a space for rich dialogue and community especially for those who are often unable to meet face to face.
\r\n\r\n\tAll Penn State faculty are invited to participate in Faculty Development activities and some academic programs may require faculty to complete one or more of these online offerings. More information on these programs and how to register for courses can be found at the Outreach and Online Education Faculty Development Web site.
\r\n\r\n\t
\r\n\tAt Penn State, we are committed to providing a welcoming, encouraging, and empowering environment for students with disabilities to ensure equal access, full participation and reasonable accommodations for their academic pursuits. If a student with a disability self-identifies to you and requests accommodations, please direct the student to contact Office of Disability Services (814-863-1807) as soon as possible.
\r\n\tYou are not required to provide accommodations for students with disabilities unless you have been provided with a letter from a Penn State Office of Disabilities specifying the academic accommodations for which the student is eligible. This might involve extended time for exams, textbooks in alternate formats, etc. The process of determining a student’s disability and eligibility for appropriate accommodations can be a relatively lengthy one, and the earlier it begins, the sooner the appropriate accommodations may be provided.
\r\n\r\n\tIn some cases, you will not be providing the adjustments directly, but you need to be aware that such accommodations are being provided. While the student may or may not disclose to you the nature of the disability, this information will not be specified in any communication you receive from ODS.
\r\n\r\n\tFor more information see:
\r\n\r\n\tWorld Campus Faculty Development offers an online course, OL 1800 Accessibility, for which faculty may register and complete at any time. It is an asynchronous, independent study model. To register for OL1800, see the Outreach and Online Education Faculty Development Web site.

\nPenn State has adopted a wide-ranging Energy Conservation Policy (AD 64) designed to lower the University’s energy consumption through employee and student action. The policy contains guidelines to encourage employees and students to reduce energy use and support Penn State’s greenhouse gas reduction goals. Employees and students will be expected to reduce their use of energy through the intelligent use of lighting, computers, heating, cooling, appliances, and office equipment.
\nWith the current economic climate and the rising need to reduce energy use, Penn State's new policy should result in substantial savings and have a positive impact on the environment.
\nPenn State's population makes it a large user of energy and in challenging economic times it is critical to use resources responsibly. Recently, the unit cost of energy increased dramatically, resulting in Penn State’s energy bills almost doubling.
\nPhysical Plant will continue to work to make buildings more energy efficient, but occupants have a major part to play in reducing energy use through their consumption of energy and their behavior. In fact, about 30 percent of energy use is under the control of building occupants.
\nSome of the actions expected from employees and students are:\n
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe policy pertains to all Penn State-owned or leased facilities, except The Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and the Pennsylvania College of Technology.
