The online teaching survival guide: simple and practical pedagogical tips

This ‘survival guide’ offers a comprehensive hands-on guide to theory-based techniques for teaching online or in a technology-enhanced course. It presents a framework of simple, yet practical instructional strategies mapped across a four-phase timeline that works for any online or blended course. For instructors needing ‘just-in-time’ guidance and training, the book tells readers what to do at each stage of a course. This resource covers all of the basics of course management, social presence, community building, integration of new technologies, discussion techniques, assessment, and debriefing. Grounded in traditional pedagogical theory, this resource also integrates the latest research in cognitive processing and learning outcomes. Faculty with little or no training in educational theory, as well as those well-versed in pedagogy, will find this book a key to developing their practical online teaching skills. While it will be particularly helpful to faculty with little access to training and support services, it can also be used as a text book in faculty training programs.
