I teach middle school tech in person. It is a great learning opportunity for my students to really learn but because I am a "specials" type of class, I am considered a mainstream environment which makes for a lot of different learning styles and supplemental needs. By offering my lessons in an online/blended model, I am offering my students the chance to do self paced learning and I really have more time to work with the students in an one on one basis, rather than as a full class. I intend on taking the skills learned here and fine-tune my online classroom presence. The consistent structure, as well as access to resources & help, will help me help my students build their confidence with the online learning model.
