• In Event: LED- Innovate! Responsive Engagement

Short Description

The dramatic shift to online learning in 2020 helped many appreciate the opportunities (e.g., flexibility) and challenges (e.g., unresponsive instruction) of asynchronous instruction and professional development. This panel will explore four professional development initiatives serving instructional designers, asynchronous educators, and online second/foreign language educators. Panelists will describe each initiative and summarize their innovations, evidence, challenges, and recommendations for responsively engaging asynchronous learners. An expert discussant will provide synthesis and commentary.
