Strategies to Effectively Engage Students in Online Learning: A Discussion of Best Practices


Watch a webcast recording where our experts connect with the broader higher education community to share ideas and ask questions amid the COVID-19 crisis.

Overview

Amid the rapid shift to remote learning, faculty are seeking to acquire tools and knowledge to ensure an engaging experience for their students. This is a steep learning curve for many who have little to no experience with remote instruction.

Watch this webcast recording of a facilitated discussion around how best to foster student engagement in an online setting with Amber Dailey-Hebert, Director of the Faculty Center for Innovation at Park University. Our expert and your fellow attendees have shared ideas and current practices around things like:

  • Motivating reluctant students who are new to remote learning
  • Setting the appropriate tone as an online instructor
  • Course communication and announcements
  • Designing engaging activities online
  • Facilitating discussion in group settings

Who should attend?

This program will benefit both instructors and anyone supporting faculty in their transition to online instruction. Specifically, faculty, graduate students, Center for Teaching & Learning staff, deans, and chairs are encouraged to attend.
