Online Missio
Online Missio is a virtual, cohort-based discussion group for Baylor's online faculty and staff. Through shared readings and conversation, participants explore Baylor's Christian mission, the relationship between faith and learning, and the vocation of teaching, scholarship, leadership, and service in the context of online education.
Online Missio welcomes participants from every academic school and administrative unit that supports Baylor's online mission. Designed specifically for those who serve Baylor remotely, the cohort provides an opportunity to build relationships with colleagues across disciplines while engaging in thoughtful conversations about Christian vocation and the University's distinctive mission.
