This year a great number of experienced classroom teachers were unexpectedly and abruptly thrown into the world of online teaching. With little time to prepare even the best teachers were forced to find ways to "make it work." In this talk, we’ll look at how to move beyond “making it work” to a thoughtfully designed online class that provides a comprehensive learning experience for students. We’ll discuss online teaching strategies, ways to engage and support students, and technology options for making it all happen.
