Abstract Description : Just like a great festival lineup needs the right mix of headliners and chill sets, effective virtual learning requires a thoughtful balance of synchronous and asynchronous experiences. In this session, we’ll drop the beat on strategies across grade levels and program models that hit the sweet spot—boosting learning, engagement, and logistics. After a short set (presentation), we’ll open the floor for an interactive jam session (facilitated discussion) where participants share their greatest hits and remix ideas.
Learning Objectives:
Attendees will learn to explore how to find the right mix of synchronous and asynchronous learning to optimize both student engagement and operational logistics
Attendees will learn how to use synchronous time to build relationships and clarify and asynchronous time to empower and differentiate
