The Online Classroom: Strategies for Higher Ed Teaching and Learning is a new program that supports educators in colleges and universities as they rethink and transform their practice for online and blended environments. Through research-based frameworks, actionable strategies, and a dynamic peer-learning community, this workshop provides the necessary knowledge and skills to advance your virtual teaching, learning, and leadership.
In this four-week online workshop, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how to create and facilitate engaging online learning environments at the college and university level. The workshop includes practical resources, ongoing discussions, and supportive peer-feedback. Each week, you’ll work iteratively on the development of a deliverable unique to your educational environment, such as the design of an online lesson or facilitation plan.
