In order to engage your students, remember to intersperse your lecture materials with tasks, see some examples below.
You might send your students to do some reading but with a question that they need to answer.
You might pose some questions and ask students to aswer in pairs or in groups to promote interaction and a learning community.
You can link to a multimedia VoiceThread discussion or to discussion board on Blackboard. To do this create your discussion board or VoiceThread thread on your Blackboard site first; then save the web address and add it to this page to create a link back to Blackboard.
To get these online discussions started and build a community of learners it helps if first students can introduce themselves to each other online. Below is an example of how you can do this with something like VoiceThread.
If your page starts getting very long, you may like to break the content into two or more pages. You can add a button (as the one below) that has a link to your next page.
Make sure you have something to stretch the confident students. So you might have an optional further reading, or an optional task or activity at the end of the session. It is important to make it clear that the session can be done without this extra reading or activity, but have it there for those who wish to delve deeper.
