Using E-Presentations in Online Courses
In an asynchronous online course on curriculum theory, students engage in group discussions, individual reflections, and conclude with group e-presentations. The e-presentation assignment involves creating online presentations on contemporary curriculum issues using various tools. The course structure includes weekly readings, videos, and activities to promote student engagement and learning. Rubrics are provided for assessment. The approach allows for student control, flexibility, and active engagement in the online learning environment.
