If you’re struggling with campus closure and a mandate to teach online, The Poynter Institute is ready to help with a new webinar and free online courses.
Our new one-hour webinar,“How to Effectively Teach Online,” is set for Friday, March 13, at noon Eastern time. If you’ve never taught online or are new to virtual instruction, Shelley Stewart, Ph.D., and Bridget Donovan, M.Ed., will teach you what you need to know about temporarily moving to an online platform. Learn strategies to communicate effectively with students and adapt in-person teaching plans into redesigned instructional activities.
Join this lively discussion on methods for teaching online and come away feeling better equipped to handle the road ahead. Sign up here. (A replay of the webinar will be available for anyone unable to participate live.)
