Description

It's nice when we can get synchronous time with online students, but it's not always possible or even always the best choice. But how do you keep class from feeling like a cheap alternative to the "real thing?" Asynchronous can open up that all-important access and even feel like a safer space to some, with some attention. Come hear our top strategy for making your asynchronous course feel as magical as your in-person courses, and share your own as well.
