This case study examines the use of online asynchronous discussions as part of a large professional practice class for primary mathematics teachers. Online forums within Blackboard are used to host discussions about video lectures, support assessments and to enable students to ask questions and receive advice about content. The realities of managing large scale online discussions are discussed, along with strategies for effective facilitation.
If you have a fantastic online teaching success story, please contact us and let us know about it!
We are looking for innovative, pedagogy driven examples of successful online teaching initiatives from all disciplines to feature in future episodes.
