Boles University Teaching and Learning

We are pleased to announce Boles University is open for business! Help us break ground and build an institution of greater learning!

We are seeking faculty members and students who wish to teach and take classes with us via our online learning portal. Please go look around the revamped Boles University website to see what's new and let us know what interests you as a teacher or a taker of courses.

Make sure you read all the links that deal with Faculty, Courses, Registration, University and Study to get a handle on what we're trying to do.

All of our courses and teaching styles are unconventional, innovative, unique and nothing like you've ever experienced before!

FACULTY
If you are interested in becoming a member of our Faculty -- you don't need a degree to teach with us, you simply need passion and incredible knowledge of your course topic(s) -- please use this email address to get in touch:

Tell us who you are and what sort of course(s) you would like to teach. Include a resume or C.V. if you like so we can get to know you better.

If we think your philosophy of teaching matches our intention, we will send you an invitation to create a Boles University Account.

Then, using that Boles University Account -- all Faculty and Students are required to have a Boles University Account in order to guarantee a proper communication pipeline -- you will login to our private Faculty Teaching Portal where you can ask questions and get details on how to set up your course(s) and to learn how you will be paid for teaching.

We think this is an exciting time to build an online university while blazing bright paths to victories of the mind. We will help you learn how to best teach online and how to create the best experience for your students.

STUDENTS
We are here to serve you! Please read the links we mentioned above to see if our place fits your style of learning. Our list of online course offerings grows every day, so check back often for updates while we build the courses. If there's a topic or a subject matter that interests you, please drop us a line to let us know your wants and desires for learning. We want to hear from you!

We are everything with you and nothing without you; so please join us in making something out of the ether of nothing.

Creating an Online Learning Portal

If you were creating an Online Learning Portal, how would you address the following issues?

1. How would you interact with students?

2. Would you hold real time classes or "drop in" classes?

3. How much would you charge for a class and long would those classes run?

4. How would grades be determined?

5. Would you charge a fee or provide the courses for free? If you charge a fee, how much would you charge?
