I have.  It was really hard, but it can be done. I will probably do it as a grad class  in the future.  I made videos of important lectures.  They were short, because I don’t usually rely on lectures a lot.  I usually try to interact with students and the material during class time, and that is hard to re-create online. I wound up collecting all their homework so I could see what the problem areas were. Then I would try to write out explanations by email.  One thing that was difficult is that I use certain formatting for analyzing parts of speech and clauses, and it doesn’t always stick when sent out via email. I guess one important thing to do is keep reminding them of what is due and what the expectations are both online and by email.

Fellow Grammarians,

 

Has anyone out there taught an on-line grammar course?

 

We’re under increasing pressure to offer every course taught by the English Department on-line. Your school may be exerting similar pressure.

 

Any help would be appreciated.
