Regular and Substantive Interaction in Online Courses: A Primer

The purpose of this virtual session is for faculty to intentionally create activities and implement methods within online courses that are considered regular and substantive interactions (RSI) with students and ensure some level of consistency. On July 1st, 2021, the U.S. Department of Education updated its regulations for online learning to clarify that distance education courses must ensure regular and substantive interaction (RSI) between instructors and students. Join MCC, NECC, NSCC, and SSU faculty in this session to learn more about RSI, its methods and ideas, and how to incorporate or enhance interactions in your online courses.
