Lots of us are facing the prospect of moving our courses online. UMD hasn't yet, but the idea's out there.
I teach online A LOT so for those of you who may have to do this but don't know where to start, I'm putting tutorials & lessons on this playlist youtube.com/playlist?list=…

I just started tonight, but it will grow to have a bunch of tech tutorials on recording lectures & hosting classes, as well as some ideas about things I use for engagement, exercises, etc. I hope it will be a good supplement to the things your unis are providing to help!
Oh, and if you come out of that playlist onto my general youtube channel, you'll find ~100 videos that I've created for my classes over the years. Please use any that may fit in your syllabi & reach out if you want supplementary materials!
Thoughts on exams in response to a q about how to prevent cheating
Do not underestimate oral exams if your class size allows it! I give a large set of possible questions for studying, randomly select 2-3 as we meet, and set a timer to limit the student’s answer (or bs) time. Grade in real time. Have a conversation after. V powerful & easy online
