COURSE SUMMARY

If you’ve ever had the opportunity to help someone else learn, at various times you’ve probably been concerned that the learner is confused, struggling, fatigued, or in disagreement, or even if you’re helping them at all. In a formal setting, we rely heavily on eye contact, facial expression, and body language.

Effective instructors and facilitators use this visual feedback to dynamically adjust pacing, tone of voice, proximity to students, questioning, and other instructional techniques. But what if you have none of those cues to guide you? How can you design and deliver effective learning experiences when instructors and students are not face-to-face in the same room? That’s what this course is about
