Faculty Bootcamp at Carroll University

Before Bootcamp...

“Do I need an upgrade?”

“I didn’t do anything...the file

just vanished...”

“Will this delete my files?”

“You are going too fast...!

what’s a url?”

“Please...”

Nothing like a little help and encouragement

to build confidence

Bootcamps started as 3-day workshops to

help faculty redesign a f2f course for online.
