Bridge Course Information

During this mostly virtual past year of teaching, I explored an array of new technological tools to make my online teaching as interactive and engaging as possible, and support content acquisition. A few did not work out for me, but some have been a game-changer, not only for my synchronous online teaching, but also for my face-to-face classes. I used a variety of online learning programs to engage students during class, to check for understanding and to keep their attention on content. Many of these programs can be integrated in face-to-face teaching as well, to integrate other interactive alternatives to learning. I will share these learning programs, my successes, and lessons learned, and help you brainstorm how to apply these programs to your content and class size. Participants will be able to… • Explore technologies that can be used to engage students during synchronous and F2F classes • Assess the learning objectives through formative tools • Adapt learning activities to content and class size
