About the Webinar How are you and your students coping with distance? Many instructors and students across the nation are exclusively interacting in the online modality. How can you stay connected with one another and foster a community in the online world? We will explore some best practices for online education that allows you and your students to express your personalities. For those of you who have returned to the face-to-face environment, do you find it more challenging to interact with a small group of students than you did with a larger group? How can you keep your students engaged when they are separated by six feet and masks? How can free technology be implemented inside of the classroom to help bridge this gap? How can you hold students accountable for learning outside of the classroom in order to make every second of your valuable class time count? How can you connect the students in the same class who are in different cohorts? Is it possible to engage students not only in the physical classroom but also on campus via in-person events while following distancing protocol? In this presentation I will share strategies that have worked for me and there will be time for participants to share their own ideas with the group. |
