Moving a Traditional Classroom into the 21st Century using Online Instruction
Abstract: While even technologically savvy instructors may struggle in moving courses online, there are simple solutions to address most of the most common concerns instructors have about teaching at a distance. These solutions address everything from how to get students to show up to how to keep them engaged. The goal is to turn a potentially chaotic online classroom experience into something that is structured, defined, and successful. This paper discusses techniques that have proven effective in moving courses from traditional face-to-face instruction to a completely online format. Emphasis focuses on developing exemplary online instruction modules.
