I
am an early adopter of online teaching and learning and have been
experimenting with remote delivery and alternative approaches since the
1990s, so when everyone everywhere "flipped" in March 2020, it wasn't
that traumatic for me or for students who were taking my classes.
Content ranged from 50-75% web-based before COVID-19. Since then it's
100%. I don't plan to go back to the physical classroom even
post-pandemic (assuming that time ever comes ).
I'll tell you a secret. My classes are *better* now. Radical redesign
has been cathartic for me and students. Converting some classroom
activities is challenging trial and error. Every semester since Spring
2020 I've been trying to figure out how to effectively play the game Set
in small groups over Zoom. I use it to teach qualitative analysis and
it was always a fun day in the classroom but I haven't been satisfied
with the online approach. Yesterday I think I figured it out!! It's the
plan for Thursday's class so stay tuned.
