Teachers’ Lounge: Presence and Engagement in the Online Class (For Graduate Students)

Teachers’ Lounges are a series of informal discussions for graduate students about teaching practices and the culture of learning at Columbia. Since many classes have shifted online this semester, Teachers’ Lounges are linking theories and models of online instruction to insights derived from working in digital learning spaces with Columbia students.

In this session, we will consider how the online learning environment affects the ability of instructors and students to be fully present and engaged. There are, of course, many challenges – how specifically might they be overcome? And in what ways are we finding online interactions to be *more* engaging than traditional face-to-face instruction? Join us to share tactics and gain inspiration.
