2013 ASHS Annual Conference

Objective(s):
To allow ASHS members to share their online teaching experiences covering a multitude of horticultural topics and lecture/lab formats. The main objective will be the sharing of successful and not-so-successful teaching techniques for the improvement of our teaching members.

This workshop will feature speakers who will share their online teaching experiences covering a multitude of horticultural courses and topics.  Speakers will present on teaching methodologies, subject delivery formats, and online learning platforms that have been successful in fulfilling student learning outcomes in their courses.  Time will also be devoted to those techniques that both presenters and workshop participants have found to be unsuccessful ways to deliver on-line content.  Online courses discussed will range from introductory horticulture to plant identification and will include information on the on-line delivery of laboratory exercises and topics.  The workshop format will include Powerpoint presentations, demonstration of online delivery systems, and an open forum for discussion amongst the workshop presenters and attendees.
