As the Fall 2020 semester winds down, it’s time to consider what we have we learned about connecting with our students in an online setting. Some alert readers have shared these introspective articles that you may want to read as you consider the changes you’d like to make in your own practice.
Your colleague Jody Condon wants to know:
Have you seen….
this article from Harvard Business Publishing Adapted from Inspiring Minds’
“Leveling the Digital Playing Field”?
She says that she found it informative and that “highlights for me were the technology questionnaire given to students and the topic of platform consistency.”
Want to see a few more articles on students and the online semesters they faced over the fall? Our very own Sarah Chambers passed along:
- This article from Inside Higher Ed called Are Students Happier With Virtual Learning This Fall?
- This article from The Atlanta Journal-Constitution written by a Georgia Tech faculty called: Georgia Tech faculty member: I didn’t think I connected with my students online. They disagreed. (You can read it the first time for free, but if you try to return to it it’s going to ask you to buy a subscription…)
Both articles offer different insights into what our students thought about their online learning experiences this fall.
What did your students think about this semester?
