Provide Interactive Spaces
- Introduction Forum – create a forum for students to introduce themselves to one another. This is vital for a Q4 course, but it could be helpful for semester-long courses as well. Students may not know all of their classmates in their face-to-face classroom, so an Introduction forum can be a great place for students to know more of their classmates.
- Course Support Forum – create a forum that provides a place for students to ask questions about content or assignments that can be answered by the instructor or other students
- Prayer Requests – create a forum for students to share prayer requests with each other
- Social Discussion (Just for Fun!) – create a fun forum where you pose a question to the class. For example, what is your new favorite pass time now that we are practicing social distancing? Post a description, photo, or video.
- Group Discussion Forums – for larger classes, separate discussions into small groups
- Collaboration Tools – encourage students to use real-time collaboration features on Office365 or Zoom
- Peer Feedback – create learning activities that encourage peer feedback
- Group Projects – group projects are still possible. Student can collaborate using Office 365 products (Word, PowerPoint), create presentations together using VoiceThread, or meet via Zoom
