Embracing Diversity in the Online Classroom: The Importance of Inclusion in Online Learner Motivation

Abstract

Too many online courses follow a cookie-cutter approach. This session will take you out of the box, and present multiple alternatives to encourage learner motivation when building online courses or activities by embracing diversity. The showcase will focus around the importance of inclusion for learner motivation in the online classroom, while following a structured curriculum. The showcase follows research done at the University of Puerto Rico which measured the importance of sociocultural context on learner motivation. Attendees will learn how to personalize online learning and how to create engaging and inclusive e-learning scenarios.
