Teach Online | Adjunct Faculty Teaching Jobs We build our courses in advance so there are common outcomes/objectives for all students taking a particular course and so the instructor can focus their time and attention on their students, working with individuals who need additional assistance and adding their own resources as they see appropriate to enhance student comprehension. We rely on our faculty to bring our courses to life. Faculty involvement is essential to keeping these courses fresh and relevant. We also offer our faculty the opportunity to have input into the update cycle of the courses.
