How to keep attention in online teaching

applying the cycle of accelerated learning to Private International Law

Abstract

This paper proposes an instructional strategy for teaching private international law through videoconference classes. The paper starts from the following premise: in order to achieve continuous student attention and effective learning, the face-to-face classroom strategy must be adapted to the virtual scenario. To achieve this, pedagogy has proposed several models of what is known as “instructional design”, i.e., models that help teachers to design the online lessons they want to teach. The model best suited for teaching via videoconference is the “accelerated classroom learning cycle”.
