Working with Teachable: Part 1

I am creating writing courses at www.teachable.com. Teachable is one of several online course websites. In fact, I have just discovered that teachers will often have the same course through Teachable, Udemy, and other similar websites. Since online teaching and learning is the primary purpose of these websites, I will share with you what I am learning as I create these courses.

I am beginning with a mini-course titled "Teach Yourself Effective Writing Skills" to be given for free as an incentive to signing up for the email 'Just Write!' As I am making the videos for the mini-course, I have to ask myself if I am interesting enough to attract learners. Of course, I can't answer that question myself. 

By using the mini-course as my learning curve, I will be better able to create the much larger course, Action Writing through Personal Narrative. This larger course will be an adaptation of the first part of the writing course I developed over the years for the classroom. I hope to make this course, then, the flagship of everything else I am doing on these two sites.

I am finding Teachable.com to be helpful and easy to follow thus far. I will add further updates to what I learn in this blog category.

Maybe you have a student homeschooling high school and you want to know that they can write effectively both in entering college and for life. Or maybe you want to learn to write (and teach writing) well. Check out the Writing Course at The Writing Conservatory. Help yourself freely to anything you see.
