Developing a Plan to Teach Remotely

It is essential that all faculty develop a plan to deliver instruction as we have now moved to remote instruction.

Guidelines for Submitting the Continuity of Instruction plan:

  • If you are teaching multiple sections of the same course, you only need to submit one plan.
  • If you are teaching more than one course, submit a separate plan for each.
  • If you have already have spoken to your Department Chair, please still submit your plan(s) on the web page, using the form below, so we have an inventory of all plans.

Indicated below are some suggestions to help you prepare a plan that will allow you and your students to be ready for any disruption.

  • Make sure you have logged into your semester Blackboard course shell(s) and are familiar with the basic features. All you need in order to log into Bblackboard is your MMC Email and password.  If you need help with either your email or password, please contact the MMC Help desk at 212-517-0580.
  • If you are not familiar with Blackboard, you can review any of the available online training resources or attend an in-person training session.
  • Establish a mode of communication in the case of an emergency using Blackboard or MMC email.
  • Make sure your course syllabus is posted in Blackboard.
  • Prepare assignments in advance that could be deployed in the event if a disruption.
  • Have a plan to interact with students regarding course content in the event of a disruption.
