Maintaining an Active Organic Class during the COVID-Induced Online Transition at Two Undergraduate Institutions

This communication contains the experience of two early-career organic professors at primarily undergraduate institutions during the rapid transition to an online learning environment during the COVID-19 pandemic. The techniques and methods for transitioning both the organic lecture and lab of two class sizes (similar to 50 and similar to 10) are juxtaposed, and conclusions are drawn that provide insight into improvements for both online and on-site learning.
