It can be challenging to engage your students when they are participating from different locations around the world. However, there is hope! In this blog post, we will discuss three ways you too could promote interactive learning with your students and be able to implement these effective techniques into all aspects of teaching.

Discussion Forums

One of the most important ways to encourage student engagement and interaction is through discussion forums. These allow students to ask questions and share ideas with their peers in an atmosphere that encourages open dialogue about what’s happening at school or home- whatever topics come up!

There should always be clear guidelines for participation, requiring posting frequency (at least once per week) and responding when someone else posts something relevant before you do yourself. When setting these rules, make sure there aren’t any expectations put on how long somebody needs to take part but rather just indicating whether contribution has been made required minimums each week.

Synchronous activities

There is a growing trend in educational technology to use synchronous activities. Synchronous activities, such as webinars and video conferencing, allow students the opportunity for real-time interaction with each other and an instructor who will answer questions during these times through chat sessions or live presentations from experts across various fields related specifically to your course topic at hand!

To ensure that you’re encouraging student engagement throughout any given lesson, it’s important to provide ample small group interactions and whole class discussions where everyone can contribute equally. This way, they learn what motivates their peers when disagreeing without feeling marginalized because of differences between individuals’ beliefs outside of school.

Providing Opportunities

Finally, you can make the learning process more engaging for students by providing opportunities to work together on projects. Projects may be done in person or online depending upon preference and availability of resources like expertise needed from instructors who will act as mentors throughout this experience.

Mentors can provide feedback during all stages and offer guidance when it comes time for presentations so that each participant has an opportunity to build confidence before giving his final presentation, followed by questions asked both inside AND outside audience rooms at regional competitions held every other month!
