Giving Narrative Shape to Your Online Classroom

Online faculty  think about the teaching of their course as tied to outcomes—the course content. And while that material is crucial to student success, there’s a bigger picture to consider.

This Magna Online Seminar will help faculty identify some practical strategies they can employ in the classroom to foster that larger conversation about student skills and outcomes, tying it to a deeper narrative about the course content and what it means outside the classroom.

What are the learning goals?

Upon completion of this seminar, you’ll be able to:

• Implement a plan for connecting classroom skills to larger outcomes—to kick off the narrative
• Utilize student contact points such as the discussion board to create a deeper picture of course content—to develop the narrative.
• Identify connections between skills learned in classes to success in the larger academic field and the careers that come next—to connect the narrative to the larger journey

Who should attend?
