Owl Hour: Designing and Delivering Successful Online Learning with Dr. Patricia Slagter van Tryon, '91
October 14, 2020
Dr. Patricia Slagter van Tryon, alumna and ECU Associate Professor, shared many of her roughly 20 years of online learning framework, tips, tricks and planning process as part of the Temple's 2020 Virtual Homecoming Week to help teachers create and deliver safe, open and successful online learning content.  Whether you are in emergency creation mode or planning for next year's programming, there is something here for you.  You don't need to be a professional speaker video guru to do it; however, you will need to think about your audience, the messages you want to deliver, how you are presenting yourself, what support software is out there, how to connect with your students, and what parameters and avenues you need to which you need to adhere.  This presentation will help you consider these and other questions and approaches to create and deliver effective content.

To learn about how to design and deliver successful online learning, watch the event recording of Dr. Slagter van Tryon's typically 10-hour presentation boiled down to under an hour.
