Online Teaching Toolbox: Best Practices, Strategies, and Activities for Effective Online Teaching

This book is intended for the beginner and perhaps reluctant online instructor. It is focused primarily on social science in the domain of higher education but many of the ideas and tools could be adapted for use in secondary education and other domains as well. My intention in writing this book is to share my enthusiasm for online instruction based on my experience as an educational researcher and online instructor with both national and international universities. Throughout this book I will share best practices, ideas for activities and assignments, provide a bit of research from the literature, and suggestions for tools to investigate that will increase efficiency, effectiveness, and enjoyment in the online classroom.TestimonialsSousa's Online Teaching Toolbox provides an overview of everything instructors need to know to be not just competent but excellent online instructors. My favorite chapter includes 60 activities and assignments that will make online learning fun for both students and instructors. - Charlotte Markey, PhD, Psychology Professor for Rutgers University, and Author of The Body Image Book for Girls and Smart People Don't DietEven as a seasoned academic and professor of online graduate programs, I gained new tips and tools that I'm looking forward to using in future courses. Despite having subject knowledge and expertise, both new and experienced instructors will benefit from using some of Dr. Sousa's tried and true activities in order to come away with new ways to engage and support their students.- Rochelle Johnson, PhD, Chief Well-Being Officer for Persuasion Point and Lecturer for New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling/Middlesex University
