This is the perfect place for you to share your online teaching/distance education stories, best practices and highlights. We'd love to hear about how you got your students engaged in learning; if you tried a new strategy and changed direction; or if you had an aha moment that altered the way you taught a particular subject.
We accept pitches on all academic subjects but are particularly interested in pitches on core distance teaching and learning strategies: course design, student engagement, technology integration, community of practice, diversity and equity, and alternative assessments to name a few.
