The Synchronous Online Teaching Micro-Course focuses on technical how-tos and best practices for teaching online with Zoom. Note, micro-courses are short courses that focus on one topic. The format is primarily asynchronous with one optional Zoom session, where faculty can share synchronous teaching strategies with colleagues.
In the Synchronous Online Teaching Micro-Course, participants will:
- Identify best practices around etiquette, privacy, and security in Zoom sessions and consider how to those might be applied to their own courses
- Share strategies for engaging students in Zoom
- Examine principles of low bandwidth teaching and resilient course design through the lens of synchronous teaching
This course remains open as a resource for SF State faculty.
