First: A word about Power Pointless! We at the University of Illinois Springfield Center for Online Learning, Research and Service present often. We encourage attendees to freely share presentation materials online using web-native tools that encourage collaboration and updating. You may follow the session using your personal mobile device to dig deeper into the topics we discuss and share with others.
With an emphasis on teaching in math and science disciplines, we will facilitate discussion on various strategies, tactics, and tools that can be used to engage students in online classes. In addition, best practices for creating content and encouraging academic integrity will be shared.
By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to:
1. Design activities for their online classes that will engage students
2. Recall best practices for creating content for online classes
3. Recognize options for ensuring academic integrity in online classes
