Research-enriched Teaching (RET)

With research-enriched teaching, students actively engage in a research process, creative activity, or knowledge translation activity. This can all be done online, and can be done in collaboration with community. The following are some strategies to support RET in an online environment:

  • Use discussion forum or small group meetings (e.g. Zoom) to check-in with or provide feedback to students
  • Use Microsoft Teams, breakout rooms in Zoom, or discussion forums for student peer review activities.
  • Use Zoom presentation, document sharing (including alternative deliverables such as video and infographics), or the Online Academic Community blog in order to provide opportunities for students to share their final product with peers, and the broader community where appropriate.
