BSG - Pedagogical Strategies for Online Learning

35 months ago

You may be feeling that teaching a class without the ability to “see” your students in person is a daunting task. Absent are the facial, verbal and physical expressions that learners give off as feedback to the activities presented in the course. In addition, the specific pedagogical strategies that you have used in the past may not be appropriate for an online environment. As you begin to teach online, you will find that learning is more collaborative, contextual and active which, requires changes in pedagogy. The new role of faculty is one of facilitator and guide. In this seminar I will discuss 4 types of thinking that need to be promoted in your online learning activities. You also will be introduced to 3 types of pedagogical approaches for teaching and learning online. In addition, you will be able to critically analyze a number of instructional strategies for each approach and determine appropriate applications for the online environment.
