Susan Manning teaches Instructional Design for Online Learning.

Teaching is Susan Manning’s second career. Having worked as an administrator in higher education for nearly 13 years, she transitioned to teaching English as a Second Language ten years ago. From that experience, she was asked to investigate the possibility of training literacy volunteers online, which led to learning and teaching and flourishing in the online environment.

Susan currently splits her time among three distinct educational activities: teaching ESL, online faculty development, and parenting.

Susan has contributed to online conferences routinely for the past 4 years, A few of her presentations include Technology Integration at the Elementary School Level and The Smith School Project: 21st Century Classroom in Action and Podcast History: NCQTalk’s 1st Anniversary for the 2006 Illinois Online Conference, and The Portable Prof: Creating Podcasts to Enhance Learning featured presentation for the 2005 Teaching in the Community College online conference.

Susan is perhaps best recognized as one of the early voices in educational podcasting. Currently, Susan is co-host of the LearningTimes Green Room podcast that explores themes in learning and technology.

In 2001, Susan became certified in the University of Illinois’ Master Online Teacher program. Additionally, she holds a Doctorate in Adult Education from Ball State University (1991), a Masters in College Student Personnel from Bowling Green State University (1983) and a Bachelors in Communications from Truman State University (1981).

Susan lives in the Chicago area with her husband and two daughters.
