Supporting online learners, especially in STEM courses, to develop the learning skills and mindsets for success is a critical focus for faculty, staff, and administrators. Researchers from the Postsecondary Teaching with Technology Collaborative discussed how broad-access institutions can leverage technology and a framework of motivational, metacognitive, and applied learning approaches to support students in online STEM courses. Faculty at Odessa Community College described examples of online STEM teaching practices and course design that foster student success. Participants shared ideas and collaborate in small groups to identify strategies for fostering learning skill development.
