Making College Courses Flexible: Supporting Student Success Across Multiple Learning Modalities

Addressing students’ increasing demand for flexibility in how they complete college courses, this book prepares practitioners to create equivalent learning experiences for students in the classroom and those learning from home, synchronously or asynchronously.

Combining evidence-based strategies and implementation stories shared by veteran practitioners, Kevin Kelly has created a guide for educators who want to offer a more flexible and equitable path to learner success. Chapters address emerging challenges related to teaching, learning, and managing technology, and give recommendations for supporting students in courses that combine two or more participation modalities. Written for busy professionals, readers will be able to quickly identify where to focus their attention and how to put these ideas into practice.

Filled with impactful teaching techniques, lessons learned, and immediately applicable exercises, this resource is a powerful tool for creating course experiences that support every student.

Kevin Kelly is an educational consultant and lecturer at San Francisco State University, USA.
