A lot of teachers and professors are suddenly finding themselves in the position of moving to a fully online teaching schedule as colleges, universities, and even some school districts shut down in response to the coronavirus. As a result, there are a lot of questions — and perhaps a little bit of anxiety — about how to be an effective, engaging instructor in a virtual learning environment.

On Monday, March 16, 2020, at 9 pm ET, Signum University Founder and President Dr. Corey Olsen will present a live tutorial and discussion on how to teach an engaging online class. This session will draw on more than a decade of Dr. Olsen’s experience as an online educator, which includes:

This tutorial and discussion will also serve as an example as well, with participants able to join and ask questions, offer comments, and otherwise engage. The session will be recorded and posted to Signum’s YouTube channel for those who cannot attend live.
