SITT 2020 Interview: Andy Jones and Mona Monfared

Shifting to Remote Learning: Student Reflection Surveys and Recorded and Live Instruction Decisions

Dr. Monfared talks about how her in-person teaching will change from her experience teaching remotely, and the different formats she used for remote learning this past spring. She discusses weekly Canvas surveys capturing some of the active learning she does in class, finding that she wants to keep these weekly surveys when in-person instruction returns. Reasons for this include being able to ask fun questions and finding that students have said they appreciate having time to reflect on the class every week. She also talks about what she has found to be the benefits of asynchronous video versus synchronous instruction, as well as the drawbacks for each.
