Larry Ragan, Director of Faculty development at Penn State’s World Campus has put his flip camcorder to good use over the past few months, cornering various ‘experts’, practitioners and generally experienced online teachers. He  asked each to describe one core competency for successful online teaching.

He has uploaded about 30 of these 1-3 minute videos to YouTube, including my own contribution COTS – Terry Anderson

They can all be accessed by typing “world campus cots” into the YouTube search window.

Thanks Larry, besides the useful tips and ideas for professional development activities, you’ve shown a cost effective way to document and aggregate emerging ideas and allowing some of the tacit knwoledge we are developing to become explicit and shareable.
