Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: MWERA Session 3: Blended Synchronous Learning: Strategies to Support Students Learning Together Online and On-campus. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

Returning to campus in the fall of 2020, while a global pandemic rages on, requires new learning arrangements to promote social distancing and safety. Blended synchronous learning has a burgeoning research base that can support those in higher education who are attempting to teach in classrooms where some students are online and some students are on-campus. In this session, design recommendations for blended synchronous learning environments based on a study from the University of Cincinnati and Xavier University will be shared. These design recommendations include the flexible use of protocols, streamlining technology, and enhancing co-presence through visual and physical connections.
