Each Deep Dive session consists of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An introductory overview of the session\u2019s topic.<\/li>\n<li>An opportunity to experiment with the concept, either by trying out new technology or through guided design activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Eight to ten Deep Dive sessions are scheduled each term, each focused on a different topic or strategy. The Center for Teaching and Learning adds new topics over time but also repeats popular offerings regularly so don\u2019t worry if you can\u2019t make a session.

Each iteration of the program is a session that lasts approximately 4 weeks, with two weeks focused on content and community activities followed by two weeks of dedicated project support.<\/p>\n<p>Each time Catalyst is offered, the session will have a specific pedagogical focus that informs the content, activities, and design project for that session. The focus for each Catalyst session will be indicated in its title and explained in its description. Regardless of the focus, the primary goals of Catalyst are to brings faculty members together to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li>Explore the intersection of technology and pedagogy together through content-driven modules and online interaction.<\/li>\n<li>Make progress on individual design projects with support from the CTL and the Catalyst community.<br \/>Build a community around WOU\u2019s passion for teaching and learning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you have any questions about an upcoming Catalyst session, feel free to reach out to<span>\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><a href=\"mailto:CTL@wou.edu\" style=\"color: #ff0000\">CTL@wou.edu<\/a><\/span><span>\u00a0<\/span>to learn more!<\/p>\n<p>Visit our Catalyst page to learn more about the current Catalyst programs available for you to collaborate in this term!<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Click Here to Learn more about Catalyst&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/wou.edu\/ctl\/offerings-catalyst\/&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#E02B20&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_heading title=&#8221;Foundations of Teaching&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; title_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; title_font=&#8221;Montserrat||||||||&#8221; title_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; title_font_size=&#8221;25px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;&#8211;et_global_body_font||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The <\/span>Foundations of Online Teaching<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> course equips educators with essential skills to design, deliver, and improve high-quality online courses.
