At Box Hill Institute, we moved to fully remote delivery in Mid March.
My advice for anyone considering this:
- Record your lessons in advance.
- Break them down into short digestible topics. This will avoid the students getting bored by long winded talks.
- It also avoids any potential tech failure that could occur trying to record the lesson live.
- Record and demonstrate each lab activity, that way if a student gets stuck, they have a walk-through guide they can follow along with.
- Do a live interactive class as if it was in the classroom to reinforce the above activities.
- Use discussion forums to get the students sharing their knowledge and keep lines of communication open.
We have NetLab so I can also do a live supervision of lab activities.
