Abstract
Online Learning-Make the Class Relevant for Everyone According to Khan, Eqbue, Palkie and Madden (2017) "student engagement is key to successful teaching and learning, irrespective of the content and format of the content delivery mechanism". The same should be said for students attending an online class from different disciplines (health sciences, business, and criminal justice for example). This presentation will show how to successfully engage students from varying disciplines. Gillett-Swan (2017) noted "higher education providers are becoming increasingly aware of the diversity of their current and potential learners and are moving to provide a range of options for their engagement". This diversity goes down to the classroom level. It is easy for a business instructor to teach students majoring in business, as they all have business in common. It is not so easy to teach a class that also has health science and criminal justice students who might not be as familiar with business classes.
