Abstract: Redesign of any course from a face-to-face environment to a total online environment is a task that requires a strong commitment to ensure the quality of instructions is viable in the online course. This presentation will discuss the planning, strategy and considerations that took place to transform a freshmen level required technology course into a total online environment that also includes the addition of teaching assistants as the primary instructors for the course. Several best practices were developed and implemented to attain a successful environment for both the teaching assistants and the students enrolled in the course.
