Jill Hadfield: How to create tasks for online context

Jill Hadfield: How to create tasks for online context In the current worldwide situation, we are having to teach increasingly online. In this webinar I will give participants a number of instantly useable online activities plus a toolkit for designing their own online tasks . We will discuss principles of task design and explore how the nature of task design for online contexts differs from that of classroom contexts. We will look at five categories of online tasks: Critical, involving an exchange of opinions, Personal, involving an exchange of personal information, Factual, involving sharing information, Fanciful, involving entering into an imaginary scenario and Creative, involving the creation of a ‘product’ and seven types of online interaction: Confetti, Pass the Parcel, Poker, Breakout, Postal Ballot, Writers’ Group and Creative Commons which teachers can use as templates for designing their own materials.
