Effective Teaching Practices (ETP) is intended to assist instructors in developing effective, engaging, student-centered lessons. ETP begins with an overview of the importance of lesson planning and then quickly focuses attention on a specific lesson planning model—the BOPPPS—which provides the foundation for the course. This introduction to lesson planning can serve you well regardless of the delivery method you find yourself teaching in.
On completing the course, you will be able to utilize the BOPPPS Lesson Planning Model to develop effective and engaging lessons for students in your classroom. Your learning will culminate in the development of a BOPPPS lesson plan that you will submit, along with a personal reflection, to the course facilitators for review and feedback.
Facilitating Online Learning is an online workshop consisting of three self-paced modules and a culminating assessment, designed for instructors who are new to teaching online courses or transitioning from teaching in the classroom to teaching online.
Located on the traditional lands of the Blackfoot Confederacy, Lethbridge College is committed to honouring the land from a place of knowing. We honour the Siksikaitsitapi as both the traditional and current Land Keepers of this area, and we welcome all First Nations, Métis, Inuit, and non-Indigenous peoples who call Blackfoot territory their home.
