Engaging & Interacting with Students Online!

Any student who has taken courses can recall struggling to stay awake during an interminable lecture, leaving class with no clear sense of what was learned, and stressfully memorizing material prior to an exam. Cognitive research has shown that students need opportunities to connect, or engage, with the information for more lasting learning. Discover knowledge and skills to integrate engagement and interactive learning for your online and hybrid courses.
