Abstract
In a traditional classroom, a teacher often presents information to their students on a whiteboard or chalkboard. In recent years, there has been a research-informed push to engage students in the learning process. This way of learning, often called “active learning” is also encouraged in a remote classroom. However, teaching and learning in a remote environment comes with a new set of challenges, but it also comes with a new set of opportunities. Join this session for an interactive discussion on how an online learning environment can foster and support an active classroom. We will use some generic examples to engage our audience and some problem-solving examples that are great for all teachers. Mathematics teachers may especially enjoy these activities.
