Online second language learning requires techniques and affordances that are unique to the discipline. How can TFs engaged in this work best learn and leverage theoretically grounded technical and pedagogical approaches to ensure the best possible learning outcomes? In summer 2020, a number of teaching fellows across a range of languages participated in training hosted by the Language Center to prepare them to develop and deliver successful online courses in an accelerated format. In this panel, they, and the Director of the Language Center, will briefly discuss their experiences in the training and subsequent teaching, provide insights on best practices, and share their perspectives on what makes a successful online language course.
This session is part of the Fall Teaching Conference, which is designed to prepare new and experienced graduate student teachers for their roles as Teaching Fellows in the FAS. Pre-registration is required. This session will be recorded. Learn more here.
