When you first begin teaching online, it's not uncommon to find the 24/7 demands on your attention and the need to quickly respond to each student individually overwhelming.
So how do you keep your own workload reasonable, but still engage students and create a strong online community … one that doesn’t require you to always be front and center?
By moving to a learner-centered online experience. Discover how this strategy can work for you in the audio online seminar How to Balance Online Learner Needs and Instructor Workload. Led by two prominent educators in distance learning, the seminar will help you understand:
•Why it’s important to create an environment that’s welcoming to students, yet compels them to take responsibility for their learning.
•How you can develop assignments and grading strategies to increase student interaction.
•What you should do to help connect students to other members of their class, thereby reducing their reliance on you.
By the end of the course, you’ll have the blueprint for a new approach to distance education. You’ll discover a more fulfilling, less stressful teaching methodology. Your students will enjoy a much more fulfilling educational experience.
