Digital facilitation still feels awkward and I am still not a fan of it. There are certainly many reasons for it and to summarize assignment 4, it doesn’t seem to suit my personality and teaching style. I am not looking to change either of them. It makes me wonder then:
- Is it possible to overcome this issue with better technology?
- If this technology does not exist yet, how would it function so that it would make #1 possible?
To answer my own question “but why bother?”, I thought about 3 moments that I enjoyed
- Brainstorming ideas in the planning phase.
- Critiquing the whole thing.
- Learning from a not-so-enjoyable experience.
Perhaps, there is a place for me (if it exists) in the background, on the support team.
Thanks Denys. It sounds like it was a challenging experience, but that you took away some valuable learning about what works (and in this case what doesn’t work) for your particular style. Thanks for your thoughtful reflection.
