First off… WOW! these people are taking advantage of you.

No, seriously… That’s abuse. Anyway, I’m currently in Graduate School for IDT. Though, I’m not working in Higher Ed, it’s my goal. My specialization is Distance Education. A couple suggestions off the top of my head. One you’re right about the additional staff. The thing about faculty, I was at a workshop today and we were talking about faculty resentment. Our consensus was that admin seems to like to shove IDT down the throats of faculty that are already being treated poorly.

This Book… should help a lot. An Administrator's Guide to Online Education, by Kaye Shelton and‎ George Saltsman Great book and very well written, though it’s a little old (2005,) the information is still relevant.

The short version of the books suggestion to your administration? They need a strategic plan. Attempting DE without a good framework will have consequences, poor retention. It sounds like they don’t care if anyone is learning, or if faculty is adjusting to teaching online.

I’m sorry. If I were in your shoes I’d attempt to help them. If they don’t want to listen. I’d get my resume updated and take my skills to someone that cares.
