The Elm

Are you new to online teaching? Or just want some extra support and community during this time of transition to online learning?

We are a group of UMB faculty who teach online or who want to learn how to do so. We created this informal online faculty community to support one another in our online teaching and to share best practices, tips, and tools.

We meet monthly using Webex to discuss topics such as how to increase student engagement in the online classroom, how should we use social media in the classroom, what are the best technologies for creating videos, and so much more. Bring your questions and any tips and resources you have gathered along the way.

To join by Webex, contact Dr. Michelle Pearce at michelle.pearce@umaryland.edu for more information.
