    S2E2 | Student Perspective on Online Education

    What ideas do students have for online education? We talk with Tanjot Grewal of McMaster University (Hamilton, Ontario) and Nicole Kada of Wayne State University (Detroit, Michigan) about the student perspective about the coming online semester. What are some of the ideas they bring to make online learning more effective? How does accessibility for all students play a part in this discussion? What are the silver linings, if any, from this shift to online during the Covid-19 pandemic? We end on a hopeful note about the future! This is a great conversation – let’s get back to school and keep moving forward.

    S2E1 | Creating Community in Online Learning

    Julia talks with Bellevue College faculty member Jennie Kong Mayer and her organic chemistry student Rizmina Lathiff about features she used with Zoom to make her online class more interactive. We caught up with Jennie after a post in ChemEdX.org about the methods she used to build community and engagement in her summer organic chemistry class. I was so used to seeing my students in person and then we would meet online. But with this spring quarter going completely online, it was like we were all complete strangers. So, do you create that classroom feeling in a virtual setting? That’s the question that Jennie tries to answer in the podcast!
