How Can I Gauge Online Learning Through Engaging Activities and Assignments?
As a teacher, you are generally familiar with creating assignments in a traditional in-person class environment, but in an online environment, how do you gauge your students learning and comprehension so that you know they are mastering the material?
This 20-Minute Mentor builds on what you already know about assignments and activities while explaining how you can adjust, adapt, and expand your existing assignments and activities you have—and adopt some new ones—to strengthen your teaching in an online context.
You will be able to strengthen your teaching by becoming more attuned to what students are actually learning in an online class; learn how to craft more engaging, useful activities for online learning; and add some creativity and fun to your online teaching. You will be provided with specific tactics and frameworks for remotely assessing how much students understand the material taught in an online course and be able to implement new activities and assignments online to gauge student comprehension.
