Teaching a Live Distance Course this Spring? Here are two workshops to help you:
<p align="center"> </p> <p align="center"> If you’re teaching a live distance course in Spring,<br /> you’ll want to participate in one or both of these informative workshops:</p> <p align="center"> <strong>Logistics for Live Distance Learning Courses</strong></p> <p align="center"> <strong>Wednesday, January 8 from 10am-noon in Gornto 218</strong></p> <p align="center"> <strong>Engaging Students in Live Distance Learning Courses </strong></p> <p align="center"> <strong>Thursday, January 9 from 10am-noon in Gornto 218</strong></p> <p align="center"> The Center for Learning and Teaching invites you to a two part series designed to offer you guidance for engaging your students and managing the administrative details of your live distance learning course.</p> <p> In the <strong>Logistics </strong>workshop (on January 8th), you’ll learn how to manage real-time delivery to your students watching you at ODU’s extended classroom sites, about the archive that is available via asynchronous video to all of your students. In addition, you’ll learn about bookstore services, materials distribution, testing and student assessment, how to find and manage your course roster, and course evaluation. You’ll also get an orientation to the extended campus classroom site directors and their roles.</p> <p> In the <strong>Engaging Distance Students</strong> workshop (on January 9th), you’ll learn new methods of interaction, collaboration, assessment, and presentation. Presentation strategies and techniques will show you new ways that you can engage students with content; Collaboration will discuss ways to engage students with your students at distant sites. A portion of the workshop will be dedicated to hands-on practice in presenting content, and using current best practices for design and development that ensure clarity, legibility, and presentation of content in interesting ways.</p> <p> The workshops will be available, as well, via live two-way video for instructors that cannot participate in the Gornto classroom.</p> <p> <strong>Registration is required for each workshop: </strong>Log in at <a href="http://clt.odu.edu/">http://clt.odu.edu</a> and use the Center for Learning and Teaching’s <em>teach</em>ODU module or click Events in the top navigation.</p> <p> <strong>For more information or a one-on-one session</strong><strong>:</strong> Send email to <a href="mailto:clt@odu.edu">clt@odu.edu</a> or phone Susan Boze at 683-3172. </p> <div> <p> </p> </div> <p> </p>
