Building Community in the Virtual Classroom (Learning to Teach Week)

In this workshop, we will introduce the idea of community building in the virtual classroom and the impact it can have on students' remote learning experiences. Participants will explore a new understanding of the role of an instructor and how they might put into practice unique teaching strategies for fostering a community in the virtual classroom. This workshop is based on a collaborative initiative between the Faculty of Arts and Teaching and Learning Services, but it has been expanded to be applicable to those in all disciplines.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Understand how an instructor's choice of teaching and learning strategies influence the sense of community that students feel in the virtual classroom.
  2. Apply practical strategies for community building to realistic online contexts.
  3. Reflect on the importance of community as a principle.
