Earlier this month, Stanford's Online High School offered (in partnership with Stanford Continuing Studies) a free, five-day course "Teach Your Class Online: The Essentials." With many schools starting the next academic year online, this
course found a
large audience. 7,000 teachers signed up. Aimed at middle and high school teachers, the course covered "general guidelines for adapting your course to an
online format, best practices for varied situations, common pitfalls in online course design, and
how to troubleshoot student issues online."

The videos from "Teach Your Class Online: The Essentials" are all now available
online. You can watch them in sequential order, moving from top to bottom, here. Or watch them on this Stanford hosted page. Day 1 (above) provides a general introduction to
teaching online. See topics covered in Days 2-5 below.

Please feel free to share these videos with any teachers. And if anyone watches
these lectures and takes good class notes (ones other teachers can use), please
let us know. We would be happy to help share them with other teachers.

Finally, just to give you a little background, Stanford's Online High School has operated as a fully-online, independent, accredited high school since 2006.
Stanford Continuing Studies provides open enrollment courses to adults worldwide. All of its
courses are currently online.
