SHORT TRAINING ON ONLINE FACILITATION FOR EDUCATORS IN NIGERIA

Institutions of higher education in sub-Saharan Africa have started to deploy virtual environments to digitize learning and classroom interactions between teachers and students in online and blended courses. In order to fulfil our mandate as specialized universities, raise a workforce of graduates who will function in the knowledge economy and innovate in the new industrial revolution, teachers need to be trained in online facilitation. This proposed research addresses this need. The aim of the project, therefore, is to develop a training course of online facilitation for educators in specialized universities in Nigeria, using FUTA as a take-off point, and investigate factors that influence teachers’ attitudes towards e-learning.
