Testimonials

“The Spring 2024 Adding interactivity to Your Courses was incredibly beneficial to increase variability into my course assignments. Feedback from students reflected how much they valued the use of video announcements, the integration of Adobe Express modalities into assignments, as well as learning about the Hypothesis tool for article annotation. These small changes in assignments and content delivery resulted in large increases in student engagement."

Courtney Boitano, Occupational Therapy Department

 

"The asynchronous Adding Interactivity to Your Course program was fantastic. Led by Sara Bakalian and Rachel Lazzeri-Aerts, the well-designed curriculum covered a wide range of topics, from the benefits of adding interactivity to how to use a variety of different interactivity tools. The Overview, Resources, and sample Activities provided an excellent foundation for building multiple interactive lessons, reviewed by Sara or Rachel to use in our own courses.  I highly suggest participating in any program Ecampus provides - participation has long-term and lasting benefits for not only yourself as an instructor but, more importantly, your students!"
