In this episode, we wanted to highlight a couple of tips to kick-off your online course shell in a way that spurs engagement. We talk about knowing your Learning Management System features, where your students should start when they log-in, and what should be included when you start your course. Finally, I provide you with a couple of tech tools you might want to become familiar with as you start out your classroom with digital learning. Engagement is key and should be the focus to keep your course moving forward. Best of luck as you plan for this upcoming school year!
