Description

The article defines a repeatable lesson-level sequence for guest lecturing in online courses. Students study course content and work in groups to determine questions for the guest speaker; the speaker is interviewed in a pure question-and-answer format by an on-site representative or instructor, remotely if needed; the interview is recorded and shared; students revisit the video and reflect in discussion forums; the cycle may repeat with more speakers; finally students review the video series and write a term paper summarizing lessons learned. Teams are formed and coordinated through discussion forums in the course management tool.
