Remote CTE Teaching that Works, 2020 and Beyond --> The Situation to Impact
Post what you've learned about this topic and how you intend to apply it. Feel free to post questions and comments too.
I really appreciated the sample lesson where the teacher flowed between synchronous and asynchronous activities in remote instruction. It's helpful to think about those two categories of engagement when planning a Zoom lesson, however in my experience with distance learning too few students actually came to the Zoom classes to make them relevant. All learning experiences had to be accessible in the LMS because so many students did not attend the synchronous classes. (I'm in Oregon where students were learning from home for over a year, hopefully in other states students had a shorter and more manageable experience with remote instruction!)
Push them just beyond their knowledge to challenge them. Challenge them, make it interesting, peak their interest.
To limit the distractions to the student in their learning environment and how best to correct it. To increase my own knowledge level to better serve the students.
So far, I've refreshed my memory about some terminiology. And I've been thinking my way through specific connections to my current work position. I think the three underlying questions of is it interesting, challenging, and does it promote a higher level of curiosity are the foundations of age old dilemmas in education.
