If you're teaching online for the first time, use a time-tested model like the 5E for designing lessons. You'll save yourself time creating successful and engaging lessons, making sure you address the key elements of curriculum design. The 5E model, developed by Roger Bybee, is a widely accepted instructional model used in the sciences and STEM/ STEAM curriculum design. Based on a constructivist approach, the 5Es—Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate—encourage student engagement and inquiry.
