Best Practices for Teaching Remotely
As campuses close in response to the coronavirus, many educators will
be teaching remotely for the first time to ensure the student learning
experience isn’t disrupted. Online learners may have different
expectations that onsite learners. Here are some considerations and
best practices to consider if you find yourself in this situation.
Respond to students’ emails or texts within 24 hours. This is a normal
response time for online learners. Let them know in advance what your
response time will be (whether 24-48 hours) so you meet their
expectations.
Address students by name in your response.
Have an “open-door” policy for setting up virtual meetings or set up
webinar “office hours” where you are online waiting for students to
contact you.
Make sure students know that you are approachable and that your goal
is their success — remember, this wasn’t their choice either. Verbal and
written acknowledgment of your approachability is important to them.

Use discussion boards to post valuable questions for student
critical thinking on the topic being taught. Encourage students to
read and respond to other students’ comments and post your own
questions to move the discussion forward.
Set guidelines for the discussion boards. Have a clear rubric with
set expectations. Make sure to set an end time — 11:59 pm or
whenever you choose for students to respond.
Students (and faculty) should read and respond on at least three
days during the week.
When using references in the discussion board, students should
always cite the references.
Use real-world experience/application as much as possible.
Are you looking for a platform for talking with students? Check with
your college or university to see if they have WebEx, Zoom, Go to
Meeting, Bluejeans, or another virtual meeting platform.
Otherwise check out this blog which discusses many methods for
talking live for little or no cost with students.
