Mateo Montilla Cifuentes's curator insight, March 7, 2020 1:59 PM
Communication has always been one of the most important needs for human kind, since the begining humans try to communicate and share their feelings and ideas with others. That is why we should as educators take advantage of nowadays social media and interactive social interaction apps in order to cmommunicate with our students and allow them to share the information with their peers. I believe that not using that would be a waste of time and that we would be missing some of the greates technological advancements in the history of human kind.

I've taken many classes (short) online to find out more about a topic, but also to find out how other instructors teach a topic-especially if it's a topic I teach or want to teach in the future...I don't see how you could teach online without first taking an online course.. Yikes!

When people ask me how to get started in online education, I recommend that they begin by taking small steps. Begin by creating a course shell and transferring some of your course content to it. Then, transfer assessments and activities to the course. While still teaching face-to-face, have students begin doing some assignments through the LMS. Slowly, begin to transition from fully face-to-face, to blended, to fully online.
