Malissa Ocean and Marilyn Ware present: Let’s Make Virtual Go Viral!

Educating students virtually has become part of our new normal in the educational setting. There is a challenge to create virtually engaging classroom communities. This session will provide innovative strategies to incorporate into virtual classrooms that will build and sustain an engaging classroom community. Create a virtual classroom community where teachers and students build and maintain a relationship, in which students are fully engaged during the school day, students are in attendance consistently, and students are showing academic progress.
