This paper discusses a non-credit pass/fail course that is designed to support international graduate students as they begin their graduate studies at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Specifically, the paper considers how the course was redesigned in Fall 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and a university-wide shift to remote teaching and learning. I share my experience redesigning and facilitating the course, as informed by a pedagogy of care within an online context. Special consideration is given to course structure and student engagement, as well as general lessons learned from the experience, including some of the advantages of teaching the course online (e.g., increased student numbers). |
