[ED-TECH] Fwd: SPECIAL EVENT: Mistakes Schools Make When Offering Online Programs (and How to Avoid Them)

Hi everyone,

I wanted to extend this invite to you.  The event is free.  A small panel of online industry experts will discuss common mistakes schools make when launching online programs.  Follow the links below if you would like to register.

Also, if you missed the discussion with the DOE Sr. Policy Advisor, there is a link to listen to the recorded playback.  It was a very interesting conversation that addressed the change and evolution from traditional school perspectives to for-profit to accrediting bodies.

Enjoy!

Thought Networking for Online Educators

DRIVE: The Surprising Truth About What Motiviates Us

This is a great video to watch about what motiviates us to achieve better performance.  It makes me wonder how this could be applied to online education.  What motiviates the online student?  Can we use this science to structure learning environments that help keep online students engaged (thus leading to higher retention...).
