Resumo

This essay seeks to offer some methods that teachers can use online to enable students to move from what Jean Piaget calls passively receiving knowledge to constructing new knowledge. Especially in our remote classes, we must discover new methods to perform higher-order thinking, not just for the purpose of learning in our own classes but also for the types of learning students will be required to perform when they leave the university. This essay delineates three core methods for online teaching: Flipping the Classroom, Creating a Safe Environment, and Storytelling. The article then moves to five fundamental strategies to improve engagement: Giving Up Control of the Class, Guided Discussions, Asking Questions, Just-In-Time Learning, and Write First, Then Share. The essay concludes with two techniques to use in online classes: About Me, and Paired Writing and Editing. Together, these methods, strategies, and techniques offer teachers new ways to drive the kinds of thinking, learning, and connection that will set students up for success at college and beyond.
