One of the things that is most missed online is that one-to-one connection; this is especially noticeable at the end of "class" when you cannot simply walk up to your instructor and ask follow up questions. To mimic this time of connection, you might consider alternate ways of building and maintaining this process.
You could:
- Discussions in Quercus
- Conversations/Inbox in Quercus (see How do I use the Inbox as an instructor?)
- Online office hours through Zoom or Microsoft Teams
- Create groups in Quercus so that people can work together (see How do I add a group set in a course?)
