ELTOC 2021: Low-tech Approach to Teaching Online: Online teaching solutions for primary learners by Joon Lee

Whether face-to-face or online, it is important to keep learners engaged and feeling connected to their coursework. With ELT currently in various transitional stages, many educators find themselves in a “used-to” but “not-fully-comfortable” state. Though high-tech teaching platforms and digital programs are being created and upgraded, often a relatively low-tech path can be equally effective.

In our session, we will explore how successful online teaching can be achieved through low-tech solutions. We will examine simple and practical methods for teachers to keep the focus, attention, and participation levels high with their primary learners, while reaching the academic goals.
