For some assignments I have a consulting session so that I can take with students about their work and answer questions.

I provide students an opportunity to meet with me and others in the class throughout the course -- sort of a mix between an online lecture and study/help session. I usually introduce some content from the week and then we go through some of the practice questions and talk them through.

I asked students as part of their introductions to say, given unlimited resources, what kind of non-profit they would start. It really helped students connect with one another.

Discussions

I have mandatory discussion posts for my asynchronous class where the students must also respond to classmates each week so it can imitate an actual in-class discussion.

I like to summarize a discussion at the end, pointing out how different students' posts relate to one another.

In my online classes i create x points as community participation points and provide options to earn those points: respond to peers in discussions, use social media class hashtags, participate in synchronous class sessions; e.g., Zoom.

I always try to integrate discussion board assignments into both my online and in class courses.  With each assignment I make it mandatory that students respond to  their classmate posts.  This has helped foster relationships and provides me another assessment tool.

I ask the students to share experiences they've had in the professional world that disagree with, or conflict with, opinions and theories that we're reading about in class. It sets up a great precedent for how to disagree with others without creating conflict - an they learn how to have dialogue with other students that doesn't become argumentative - just a representation of view points.

I have the students broken up into groups by interest (type of library) and have the students present articles that they find and facilitate a discussion.

I create a discussion thread/special space where students are encouraged to share information, stories, etc., outside of class content. I also use icebreaker activities that go beyond the usual, name, year, and so on.

I like to have weekly Zoom sessions. Students really like having the regular live interactions

I encourage students to engage in discussions around the readings and to share their projects with the class. We also use slack where students can chat with one another and offer ideas and tech support to each other.

In general, building community is really challenging for me! Looking forward to getting better via these tools!
