Description. Graduate teaching assistants are often recruited to teach online, even without prior experience teaching or in the online environment. While many instructors simply put their face-to-face class into a Blackboard shell, there’s much more to effectively teaching online. With an innovative approach, this session will introduce best practices in teaching online as well as share how to implement those best practices through hands-on experience with various applications.

Learning Outcomes. As a result of this session, participants will be able to:

1. Describe best practices for teaching online

2. Explore applications for implementing effective online teaching

3. Begin to practice building or improving on online course
