I'm Brittany Dillman and today I will be hosting an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on Teaching Online: Pedagogy, Assessment & Instructor Presence.

I have my PhD in Educational Psychology and Educational Technology from MSU and currently work with the Master of Arts in Educational Technology (MAET) program in the College of Education. I am currently teaching a learning theories course and a technology teaching across the curriculum course, so I pretty much live, eat, and breath pedagogy, assessment, and instructor presence in online learning spaces.

Please share your questions, comments, concerns, or ideas by commenting on this post and I'll share what I know (or ask the best questions I can come up with). Let's have a conversation about teaching online!
