PIVOT Webinar: Planning for Online Teaching

Teaching online is very different from teaching in the classroom -- both pedagogically and technologically. Although SP2020 faculty were required to quickly adapt to remote instruction, faculty who are teaching in summer have several weeks before classes start to adapt their courses for the online environment.

Join our panel of experienced online faculty to discuss tips, strategies, and effective practices for teaching in a virtual environment. Share your ideas for time management and course organization. Evaluate technologies to align course objectives with your assessments and learning activities. 

Planning Instructional Variety for Online Teaching (PIVOT) is a new professional development program for faculty who wish to take a more deliberate approach to preparing their courses for remote, synchronous and asynchronous, online instruction. Learn more.
