Best Practice in Online Teaching

In this session we will take a tour of the most important features of the platforms that participants are currently using. We will consolidate knowledge of them and practice using them in a peer-teaching format.

This session will look at ways to adapt what we normally do in class to the online environment. We will cover presenting, setting tasks and giving instructions, monitoring, classroom management, feedback, eliciting, error correction, supporting learners.

In this session we will explore different tools to help us organise our materials and share them with students in an effective way. We will also consider safeguarding and copyright issues.

In this session participants will be guided through some EdTech apps that can boost student engagement. They will have the chance to set up accounts and practise using them with their peers.

This session will focus on using this approach in a variety of contexts. Participants will be offered hands-on experience of creating their own materials to be used in a flipped classroom.

In this last session we will deal with common problems associated with online teaching and attempt to find solutions based on the knowledge acquired during the course.
