SUMMARY:20 MM |What Are Three Proven Ways to Manage My Online Discussion Board and Actively Engage Students?
DESCRIPTION:Discussion boards have proven to be a valuable point of contact in online courses. However\, too often\, struggling to connect over online discussion boards leads to missed opportunities to encourage and engage with your students due to shallow engagement. This 20 Minute Mentor video by Nathan Pritts\, Ph.D.\, will provide the basis for a facilitated discussion on ways to use the discussion board beyond its basic function by highlighting three areas for faculty to improve: engagement\, community\, and expertise\, and specific strategies for doing so. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nList 3 techniques to increase engagement in online discussion boards\nIdentify actions that can model the engagement you want to evoke from students\nRecognize approaches that foster a sense of community\nExplain how sharing your expertise can push students towards a deeper consideration of the subject matter\n\n

SUMMARY:Webinar | How to Use Shared Online Videos\, Podcasts and Webcasts to Engage Online Learners
DESCRIPTION:The global disruption wrought by COVID-19 has given institutions\, faculty and instructors an unexpected gift: the opportunity to reimagine teaching and learning to create an equitable\, humanistic learning ecosystem for all. \nStructures that have resisted much-needed change now have the chance to pursue transformative improvements through more authentic learning and apprenticeship with experts in the real world. \nShared online videos\, webcasts and podcasts offer a unique knowledge portal to the most adventurous and productive pioneers in most fields and disciplines — and interviews of leaders and emerging scholars in their respective fields serve as a historical roadmap of the progress made as well as exciting trends seen firsthand by people with decades of experience. \nIn this session\, Dr. Curt Bonk\, professor in the School of Education at Indiana University\, details a range of innovative pedagogical uses for shared online video\, webcasts and podcasts. \nKey takeaways \nThis webinar will leave you with a better understanding of: \n•    Tools and free\, open online resources for building a dynamic educational ecosystem\n•    Methods to engage learners in cross-cultural exchanges and global education\n•    Ways to address learner diversity\, equity and inclusion with digitally rich multimedia and innovative pedagogical approaches\n•    Simple and powerful techniques for students to learn online\n•    Ideas to extend course content with recent events and interesting educational programming\n•    Creative online instructor roles and philosophies \n  \nHost: Dr. Curtis J. Bonk\, Professor\, School of Education and Adjunct Professor\, School of Informatics at Indiana University

SUMMARY:Webinar | How to Engage Silent Learners
DESCRIPTION:Many of us learn best in silence and need time to reflect before saying or writing our thoughts. In synchronous online meetings (and in physical meetings) we often mistake visual and vocal activity for engagement and learning\, while silence is interpreted as a lack of interest or even laziness. \nBecause synchronous meetings tend to be dominated by a vocal minority\, contributions are mostly spontaneous with little time for reflection. There are many reasons people are silent in class or in a meeting. We must develop new methods to allow quiet attendees to present their ideas and engage in discussion instead of being drowned out by their more outspoken colleagues. \nBreakout groups can be very rewarding but only if you already know the rest of the group or have a group of confident\, talkative participants. Many students simply leave the meeting when breakout groups are announced. This is not typically due to a lack of interest but a fear of discussing complex issues with a group of strangers. \nIn this webinar\, you’ll learn how online tools and methods can extend the discussion to engage all participants in the way that suits them best. Simple techniques to make online meetings more inclusive include using more silent reflection time\, written discussion and greater emphasis on the asynchronous activity before and after the synchronous session. \nKey takeaways \nYou’ll come away with a better understanding of how to: \n\nIdentify and understand reasons for silence in online meetings\nUse periods of silence in online meetings to foster reflection and widen the discussion\nCreate engaging and inclusive online activities that do not always depend on video and audio\nPromote the strengths of silent learners through more multimodal online activities\nStretch the meeting through the use of collaborative online tools\nCreate the right preconditions for fruitful breakout sessions\n\nFacilitated by:  Alastair Creelman | e-learning Specialist\, Linnaeus University\, Sweden (now retired)

SUMMARY:Webinar | Enhanced Learning in the New Digital Classroom  (Educause)
DESCRIPTION:In the spring of 2020\, the COVID-19 pandemic forced educational institutions at all levels to switch instruction almost overnight to virtual classrooms. With scant time to marshal their resources\, officials in K–12 schools and higher education had to figure out how to deliver curricula\, share materials\, foster collaboration\, and keep students engaged. \nGiven the number of teachers who lacked experience with distance learning and the many students who lacked access to the necessary technology\, schools faced significant challenges. Since then\, educators have learned a great deal about how to deliver instruction in a hybrid learning environment. Hear from the Center for Digital Education on recent research and receive a copy of the report. \nOutcomes\n\nReview research highlights from the report “Enhanced Learning in the New Digital Classroom”\nLearn how to help combat fatigue on your campus\nReceive access to the research report

SUMMARY:Webinar | Blended Learning Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Following the changes that most institutions implemented to address the need for remote instruction and the changing student and instructor expectations around flexibility\, modality and appropriate use of in-person time\, many are exploring blended learning as the future of the university. The potential for high-quality learning experiences that make the best use of time\, space\, modality\, and interaction is high\, but with many new to the world of blended learning\, there is also a need to inform strategies\, policies\, and practices with existing and new research on blended learning. \nCome join instructors\, designers\, and leaders to discuss perspectives on the past\, present\, and future of blended learning research\, what have we learned\, what are we doing\, and how will we see blended learning impacting our future. This free virtual webinar will be a dynamic session with featured speakers and interaction opportunities. Plan to leave with takeaways to prepare you for the virtual and onsite symposium aligned with OLC Accelerate 2022.

SUMMARY:Webinar - How to Use the HyFlex Method to Teach Online and In Person at the Same Time
DESCRIPTION:Faculty and instructors are facing instructional challenges never faced before from having to rapidly move their courses online. They have learned a lot\, but have a sense “they can do more!”. Faculty and instructors are also starting to realize not all of their students will be in class or online next year – there will be more “hybrid” teaching which requires a new\, flexible approach. \nFour takeaways from this webinar: \n• Learn how to use this flexible course framework that offers a combination of online\, synchronous\, and face-to-face options (hybrid) in a course where students are able to choose when and how they attend (flexible).\n• Develop successful strategies to engage online and in class students in a single class session.\n• Understand how HyFlex options prepare an institution (or program) for any other situation requiring an immediate shift to fully online.\n• Learn how assessments for and of learning can work when students are studying the same course in class and online.
