I have been adjunct teaching for several years, but always done so in-person. The schools have always provided a syllabus and instructor guide, which saves me the trouble of developing them. Usually the school wants to control what is being taught and how, due to accreditation and regulatory issues. I'm new to teaching courses on-line and I wasn't expecting much to change. Why would a school want to trust "me" with developing a syllabus and instructor guide, whether I was teaching in-person or on-line?
