Hi guys, For those of you that are teaching/have taught online, what subjects do you teach? Also, are you considering expanding into new subject areas? Thanks Jon
I teach (or have taught) various English courses, from a developmental English course, freshman comp - both semesters, intro to lit, argument and persuasion, to tech/business writing. I don't expect to expand to another subject field, but if I DO get PhD, then I will expand the courses, I suppose.
I have taught computer classes and a business class. I plan to expand to marketing, healthcare admin, and possibily finance.
CJ Foundations, Community Policing, Security and Loss Prevention, Criminal Investigations, Crime Prevention, Law Enforcement Systems, Criminology. Anything in the CJ field is fine.
Courses that I have taught online include different levels of instructional design, educational technology, corporate training, human resource development, technology for educational leaders, web development, intro to research design, and prior learning assessment.
I design and teach Associate's degree level IT courses, specifically in web page development and comparative operating systems. I'm happy with that and have no plans to expand. -=Steve=-
Emergency management, homeland security, fire science/administration, public administration, and general management.
No, it hasn't. In fact, I started before I'd completed the degree, although I had a BS with an Information Systems concentration, so I was already demonstrably qualified to handle lower division IT courses. These things are rules of thumb, not laws of nature. -=Steve=-
Thanks for the insight. My only experience teaching has been for some CompTIA certs (offline) and the organizations can make up the rules for that stuff as they go along.
Accounting (Introduction, Intermediates, Advanced, etc), Accounting Information Systems and Accounting-Fraud Examination. All of those were online. Some Accounting and LOTS of Finance courses were taught locally in a B&M evening degree program. I was really considering "Leadership" and was looking at a local PhD in Leadership but the stars are not aligning for that. Most likely I will end up working towards my doctorate in Accounting since that is what I know best!
I've taught intro psych, personality, statistics, and research methods. I'm teaching Statistics for Criminal Justice online, although I've never had graduate work in Criminal Justice or Sociology... stats is stats
