My main concern when moving to an online format was loosing that personal touch.
I am also curious what you did to maintain and even improve on that personal connection.
Multitasking is definitely a superpower, especially when teaching online! I find it very stressful as even though we never actually “see” our students, I feel the pressure to constantly be available online to them, so it feels like there is no off-switch. Plus you want to maintain a connection, which is a lot harder than when you naturally get a chance to see students in a classroom every day. I’m sure you are doing a great job!
Adapting to the current change/shift is definitely a superpower right now!
You have great skills Cheryl! How do you keep student’s attention during lectures? Any tips to share?
