Transitioning • Transitioning from face to face via online. (focus on UDL, making it accessible to all). • Start small – 1 activity and build from there.
Design and Planning • Designing Engaging Online EventsCapture their attention
Design and Planning – Modules • ID each component in print • Examine a sample online module • Keys to success in an online course • Play accompanying video file from DMC
Design and Planning - Modules • Examine, module 4 from, ISTC 667, in print and video capture. • Module 4 - focus on discussion; note the discussion timeline and dates. • Sample module screen capture video.
