The Refinery

Weekly Faculty Support & Course Coaching

Promotional graphic for The Refinery, Albany State University's weekly faculty support and course coaching program. The graphic features the Albany State University logo, the title "The Refinery," and messaging focused on online teaching excellence, course design, accessibility, GeorgiaVIEW support, AI and emerging technologies, and instructional design expertise. A goldsmith is shown engraving the Golden Rams logo into a gold medallion, symbolizing continuous improvement and the refinement of online courses.

Great courses aren't created overnight. They are refined through reflection, feedback, innovation, and continuous improvement. Join our instructional design team each week for personalized support with GeorgiaVIEW, accessibility, AI tools, course design, student engagement, and more. Bring your questions, ideas, or works-in-progress. We'll help you strengthen your courses and enhance the learning experience for your students.
