Abstract: 

Two of the main criticisms of virtual learning are that the practice lacks engaging lectures and leaves little room for valuable classroom discussion. Here, I have created an evidence-based unit plan on the topic of Research Methodology in Social Sciences. This unit plan has been aimed to creatively use technology to incorporate engaging lectures and classroom discussion in a virtual setting where there are no face-to-face meetings. The ultimate goal of this approach is to make students feel connected and stay engaged, despite not engaging with one another in person.
