Best Practices for Instruction
Remote instruction and online learning are significantly different than a regular face-to-face classroom. Remote or online courses are often asynchronous, require students to be independent learners where the instructor takes the role of a facilitator, and require advanced preparation in terms of course design and development. We created a list of pages (see below) to provide you with the best practices for remote instruction and online learning. These practices include:
