Online Library Instruction: Best Practices for Live, Online Teaching





No sessions are currently scheduled for this event. To request a new session, please contact membersupport@lyrasis.org

Description:

Synchronous online library instruction -- classes delivered live via Zoom, Webex, or other conferencing platforms -- have become much more common in the past year, but most of us never learned in library school how to approach this teaching format. This session will help your live online classes become a little less nerve-wracking: learn how to take advantage of the live online classroom environment, discuss some advantages and limitations compared to the in-person classroom, and how to make the most of your time with students.

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the session, participants should be able to:

Identify advantages and disadvantages of synchronous online instruction
Effectively move teaching from the classroom to the videoconference
Name essential core competencies for online teachers
