Engaging Online Students: Synchronously and Asynchronously

'Teacher tone' examined in June webinar
The Psychology Behind Teacher Tone
In online education a teacher’s identity doesn’t exist behind a desk or in a classroom – it exists in the mind of the student, and the teacher’s identity is completely based on the perception of the student. This perception can only come from the words and the punctuation on a page or sometimes the voice on a telephone. This webinar, presented by Mike Shumake, North Carolina's Online Teacher of the Year for 2009, presented some ground rules for using this powerful concept. Click here to view the webinar.
May webinar focused on the National Educational Technology Plan
The Next National Educational Technology Plan: Implications for Learning Online
In this session, Barry Fishman, Associate Professor of Learning Technologies in the University of Michigan School of Education and School of Information, who served as a co-author of the new National Educational Technology Plan, described the process of developing the plan and its major components. Discussion focused in particular on the implications the plan has for the near- and long-term future of learning and teaching online. Click here to view the webinar.
