In this episode, we chat with Nafiza, alumni of our Educational Technology program, and now working as Educational Technology Specialist at Teachers College, Columbia University. Together, we discuss tips that we think may help anyone new to online course design and instruction. Our topics include: How is online teaching different from face-to-face teaching? What communication tools work best for us? How do we build community? How do we design discussions? How do we present instructions? What mistakes did we make?
