To me, seems as if we are saying we are attempting to put ourselves in our student's shoes and attempt to meet the multiple variety of students we encounter in our classrooms.
Not only are we meeting the student's needs in terms of their academic level, but we are attempting to create an understanding across cultural lines, other languages lines, as well as other issues the virtual environment brings into the classroom.
Putting on different shoes allows us to best meet all the student challenges we encounter in the virtual environment we teach in.
