Course Details

The popularity of eLearning and the necessity to provide opportunities for students to learn at home has created new challenges for teachers. Although eLearning may not be a new concept, it has become more prevalent. Teachers and students need practical resources to be able to transition traditional instruction into dynamic virtual learning environments without sacrificing content or quality. Get ready to make the switch to eLearning and feel confident during the process!

In this course, you will be introduced to a tool that will make eLearning easier when planning and organizing your digital lessons —the HyperDoc. A HyperDoc is a Google Doc with links to videos, Google apps, and other web tools—all easy for students to access in one document with just one click. HyperDocs are transformative and interactive, replacing or enhancing the standard worksheet method of instruction. Whether you need to transition your classroom to eLearning, or you want to infuse blended learning into your instruction, a HyperDoc maximizes student engagement because students can work at their own pace and information is presented in ways students learn best.

This course will provide at-a-glance guidelines and step-by-step instructions to help you get started with planning creative and dynamic learning opportunities through eLearning lesson design. The information and projects are practical and relevant for teachers of all grades. This course will also introduce you to best practice recommendations to facilitate online learner interactions, and how to maintain a growth mindset for your students. Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to take your existing lessons and instruction and efficiently transition to a digital classroom. Let's get started!
