The Problem of Engaging Students at a Distance

Speaker(s)

John Mayer
Minara Mordecai
Glenn Greenberg
Jack Graves

Session Description

Now that everyone is sitting at their computers in the wee hours, bathed in the warm glow of their screens, how do you get to really engage with the instructor, the material or other members of the class?   Discussion boards can look like ghost towns,  responses can be copy/paste, monosyllabic or forced.  

Three presenters will talk about motivating students to engage in a distance learning course or situation.
