Abstract
ABSTRACT In 2020, COVID-19 compelled Hillel to offer its Jewish Learning Fellowship (JLF) online. This paper examines how educators adapted one element of JLF’s pedagogy – the Mic Drop, or closing class – to online teaching. Class recordings and interviews with educators from four campuses were obtained. A flexible coding approach was applied, followed by analytic coding to determine the functions of Mic Drops. Codes were developed inductively (based on new adaptations of online teaching) and deductively (based on existing pedagogical frameworks). The paper describes four types of Mic Drops used and suggests ways to strengthen educator training for online teaching in Hillel and beyond.
