The focus of this session is designing intentional student engagement utilizing your learning management system (LMS) in a blended learning practice. The focus is on pedagogy, not the tool.
💖Take what you like, leave what doesn’t fit, modify what is useful.
FOUNDATIONAL CONCEPTS:
  • Engaging with the learning environment is critical to learning. 
  • Defining our indicators of engagement in various learning settings is necessary.
  • A learning management system creates a more robust learning environment when used intentionally.​
