 * Authentic Online Learning**

A cohort of 13 UHCC CTE faculty members are creating sustained authentic learning experiences using Google Sites, Google Documents, Blackboard Collaborate and Ning. Development and design of the activities is done collaboratively using Google documents. Synchronous work sessions are conducted each week using Blackboard Collaborate. A community of inquiry was created using Ning for faculty to collaboratively engage in purposeful critical discourse and reflection to create authentic online learning environments for community college learners.

This session will provide an overview of the project and provide insight into how authentic learning activities can be developed for online learning.

//Interactivity// Question and answers and a guided interactive activity using the whiteboard and polling.
