Although the shift to online education is unfolding faster than anyone expected, technology-assisted teaching is here to stay.
This book provides practical tips for effective online teaching that will assist educators in comprehending and implement effective practices to maximize their teaching-learning process. It's a useful resource to have for this school year and beyond to assist you and your students to flourish in synchronous and asynchronous environments.
Closures of schools because of the covid-19 coronavirus epidemic prompted an early and widespread shift to online teaching and learning. Over 3.7 million teachers in the United States alone, and as much as twice the amount in the rest of the world, were unexpectedly forced to teach in a completely different context, with little preparation and little notice. This has posed a significant threat to children's education, necessitating immediate resources and direction.

- Learn innovative approaches for assessing student progress from afar
- Learn best practices from instructors who have been achieving success with online teaching
- Learn real-world examples that you can immediately implement and adjust in your online classroom to help you survive and thrive online
- Learn tools for developing an online classroom atmosphere, managing online distractions, and more
"In times where small instructor-led classrooms tend to be the exception, electronic learning solutions can offer more collaboration and interaction with experts and peers, as well as a higher success rate than the live alternative." - Keith Bachman
