Digital Education Strategies at The Chang School

Developing or teaching an online or hybrid course requires certain competencies that are absent from classroom development and teaching. Some of these may be technical competencies, for example being able to create and manage an online exam, but most are pedagogical, such as having a strategy for encouraging communication in an online environment.
