Education and the way things are taught have changed dramatically in recent years. Students are now expected to learn from a distance to a certain degree. It might be fully virtual or a blend of brick-and-mortar learning and distance learning. Whichever mode, the main goal remains the same: to ensure that students are learning. Our K-12 Virtual Student Engagement course provides steps for fostering teacher-student relationships, increasing clarity and engagement in a virtual setting. We describe the proper ways for planning, coaching, and demonstrating lessons across platforms and how to provide constructive feedback and assessment.

After completing this course, you should be able to:

  • Describe ways to foster teacher-student relationships in a virtual learning environment
  • List steps for increasing clarity in virtual learning
