Studio

  • problem statement * grading criteria * learning outcomes * known shortcomings of online offering of studio in past * similar online success * cbb in in-person studio
  • meeting frequency - questions between sessions
  • think time - not good at reply on the spot - language, shy, just need time to process, research, think
  • reference / instructions - tracking review * look-up discuss * students research * better

  • course design - feedback
  • reflection - deep learning
  • student expectations > assessment
  • introductions - prompts > better sharing interests personalize
  • audience - issues
