e-Learning Formats
Webcasts: ACRL webcasts are 90 minutes in length, including time for audience Q&A.  Presenters can use PowerPoint, online polls, white board, and other interactive tools during the webcast.  Participants can interact with the presenters via text-based chat or audio.  ACRL offers e-Learning webcast presenters a 10% royalty of webcast registration fees, less the Elluminate vendor fees, split between the presenters.

Online Courses: ACRL online courses are primarily asynchronous events offered over the course of three or four weeks.  Online courses are offered on the Moodle platform.  Courses should include weekly readings, discussion questions, assignments, chat sessions, and/or a final assignment.  ACRL provides  one-time $1,000 for content development for new multi-week courses, as well as a royalty of 10% of the course registration fees, split between the presenters, each time the course is offered.
