Teaching Online Lab Science Courses: Challenges and Solutions

Science education has been challenged by the demands and rapid growth of online education. One challenge is how to run lab sections of science courses online. This session will include the experience of actively taking part in hands-on lab investigations developed for online science courses. These investigations have been designed for the off-campus setting while maintaining safety and college-level rigor.
