Interdisciplinary Approaches to Distance Teaching: Connecting Classrooms in Theory and Practice

Synchronous technologies, particularly interactive video conferencing (IVC), are becoming common modes of teaching and delivering college courses. The increasing popularity of IVC in the U.S. and abroad calls for more pedagogically effective practices for instructors using this technology. This volume focuses on innovative and proven approaches to IVC teaching in a variety of disciplines: English, history, biology, chemistry, geology, engineering, social work, and elementary and special education. Contributors hail from a pioneering university at the forefront of distance education and understand the practice and potential of IVC teaching at the highest levels. Chapters outline the challenges and benefits of IVC teaching from pedagogical, technical, and administrative perspectives.Additional ISBNs1138086010, 1138908444, 1315694417, 9781138086012, 9781138908444, 9781315694412Interdisciplinary Approaches to Distance Teaching: Connecting Classrooms in Theory and Practice 1st Edition is written by Author and published by Routledge.
