Promoting Active Learning in Online Science with the Right Tools & Practical Strategies (free Vendor Webinar)

Expanding science courses online presents a unique set of challenges — and opportunities. From ensuring the same quality and rigor as on-campus lab courses to tailoring the curriculum and level of difficulty for majors and non-majors, there are a lot of moving parts for instructors to think about. At the same time, online science labs offer programs a rich opportunity to expand access to science education while boosting enrollment.

Join presenter Merideth Sellars of Columbus State Community College for a free webinar Feb. 7 at 1:00 p.m. ET, where she will share her approach for fostering interactive learning opportunities in her online science courses, including: 

• Using hands-on and virtual labs to increase learner engagement
• Providing student feedback for improvement
• Soliciting feedback for lesson improvement
• Encouraging learners to use multimedia to introduce themselves, drive discussion, and connect more meaningfully to build community with other learners in the course
• A host of other practical tips and insights into the kinds of tools that can power an effective and authentic online lab experience for learners.

Taking science programs online can help meet your institution’s learners where they are, opening up new possibilities for student success and meeting institutional goals. Join us on Feb. 7 to hear about the tools you need to build a strong online science program.
