Online Teaching Resources in this Time of the Coronavirus

From Stanford University…

Below are a few articles that I thought were useful, and that have been written amidst the Coronavirus outbreak:

• Coronavirus: 14 Simple Tips for Better Online Teaching (The Conversation): http://theconversation.com/coronavirus-14-simple-tips-for-better-online-teaching-133573
• Free Resources for Schools During COVID-19 Outbreak (The Journal): https://thejournal.com/Articles/2020/03/13/Free-Resources-Ed-Tech-Companies-Step-Up-During-Coronavirus-Outbreak.aspx?Page=1
  • (This article is basically just a laundry list of resources, updated continuously, but basically compiles all kinds of different software and online teaching resources that are offering free or discounted access to their products)
• Moving Your Classes Online? Here’s How to Make It Work (Wired): https://www.wired.com/story/how-to-make-online-learning-work/
• Professors need to be flexible to successfully transition to online class (The GW Hatchet): https://www.gwhatchet.com/2020/03/17/professors-need-to-be-flexible-to-successfully-transition-to-online-class/
• Teaching and Learning After COVID-19 (Inside Higher Ed): https://www.insidehighered.com/digital-learning/blogs/learning-innovation/teaching-and-learning-after-covid-19

These are articles that include more general tips about online teaching:

• Student Motivation and Engagement in Online Courses (Science Education Resource Center): https://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/online/motivation.html
• How To Motivate Students Online: What Works And What Doesn’t (eLearning Industry): https://elearningindustry.com/motivate-students-online-works-doesnt

Finally, I also thought it might be interesting for faculty/teachers to share some resources with their students, who may struggle with this transition to online classes:

• What Makes a Successful Online Learner? (Minnesota State): https://careerwise.minnstate.edu/education/successonline.html
