Notes from meeting to consider in regard to topic and interview...
I have GOT to dig up literature.
And here are the questions I need to address as I sift through everything...
- What research has been done with teachers' perceptions of online classess?...of the transfer from onland to online?
- What research has been done that explores the building of community -- the chemistry -- the bonding (or lack of) in online classrooms?
- What does the research say about the narratives of regarding online courses?
At least that's the way I interpreted my jottings and scribbles from the meeting.
Other issues and notes from the same meeting:
- perceptions - identity deception (song 'So Much Cooler Online' and recent issue in news of students creating false identities for their teachers)
- types of attitudes toward online teaching (resistant, positive, unsure)
- academic integrity
- learning
- learning on the fly
- resistance to teaching online
Maybe some instructors are asking 'How do I make my classes do-able online?'
