Nice set of thoughts assembled in Wiki form on the way online teaching changes what teachers do. As the author quotes from David Wiley, "...while teaching in the classroom and teaching online are both teaching, this does not mean that they are the same. Imagine an Athletic Director telling the water polo team that beginning next semester they would be playing on horseback. 'Don’t worry,' he tells them, 'it’s still polo. You still need to score goals and keep the other team from scoring in order to win. Just use the same offensive and defensive strategies you’ve been using for years. I’m sure you’ll still be conferences champs at the end of the season.'" That's just about it. Brian will be presenting this at NLII - don't miss it if you're there.
