Encouraging interactions between students is also important in an asynchronous class. You can use the following tools in your Canvas course to allow students to work in a small group with collaborative tools.
Think, Pair, Share is a technique that you may have employed in your classroom, which encourages students to think through problems (analyzing, evaluating, synthesizing) while work in pairs for a set amount of time so that they can share their results with the class.
In an online, asynchronous class, you can pose one or multiple questions in a discussion forum with the instruction that each group of students will post their synthesized answers to the discussion forum after first working in pairs to analyze and evaluate the question.
