Thursday Morning Pecha Kucha Session Presentation 2 Keith Pacholl
The presentation emphasizes two major areas: engaging with students and personalizing the online environment. It will give concrete examples of how to engage with students, including the use of interactive features within a learning management system and other software. It will also discuss how to promote student creativity by allowing them to personalize assignments while at the same time meeting rigorous academic expectations. Creating a successful online classroom requires a teacher to personalize the online environment, and I will conclude with a discussion of how to personalize the content of the class. I hope that by the end of the presentation, faculty and students who have been on the fence about teaching or taking online classes might be motivated to give it a try.
