Welcome to Module 2!
Engaging students in a physical classroom relies on direct interaction, body language, and dynamic discussions. However, in remote learning, educators need extra visual aids and digital tools to maintain student attention and participation. This unit will help you adapt your teaching skills to virtual environments, ensuring your lessons remain interactive and effective.
We’ll start by exploring how to transfer key classroom engagement techniques to online settings, leveraging storytelling, visuals, and interactive elements to keep students focused.
Finally, we’ll guide you through a new version of PowerPoint that includes advanced features designed to make live teaching more interactive and immersive. You’ll discover how to integrate these tools seamlessly into your lessons for a more dynamic learning experience.
The Learning Goals for this unit are:
- Apply strategies to enhance student engagement in class through presentations.
- Leverage PowerPoint’s advanced features to improve live online teaching.
Mastering these techniques will help you transform your virtual lessons into compelling learning experiences. Ready to begin? Head to the materials section to get started!
