The Faculty and Staff Resources webpage serves as a central hub for SIU faculty involved in online education, providing interactive training sessions, development funds for online courses and programs, and comprehensive resources to enhance online teaching and learning. It facilitates faculty support through initiatives like the Saluki Online Sessions and our partnership with the Center for Teaching Excellence, aiming to improve online pedagogy, inclusivity, and student engagement.
