A Brief Guide to Online Teaching

Abstract

Online teaching became commonplace during the corona- virus pandemic, and may be here to stay. Since then, much literature on online law teaching has arisen. This Article adds to this literature by providing a brief step-by-step guide to online teaching. Part II of this Article therefore begins by examining the threshold question-whether an online course should be synchro- nous or asynchronous-and offers a quiz to help determine which format works best for each professor and course. Part III then dis- cusses how professors can deliver content and engage students in both synchronous and asynchronous online courses. Finally, this Article highlights the roles of content creator and curator in online teaching.
