Going virtual has allowed me to spread my wings as a teacher a bit and offer more differentiated instruction as well as one-on-one help without being overwhelmed by all the other variables that come into play in the traditional setting. I can just teach and engage with students. I am excited to see what virtual resources can be used to help students make connections in my classroom.

No matter how exciting the content is at the end of the day, it is still a Reading class, so we must read and we don't have many hands on activities that brings the content to life.

The lessons designed for Read 180 are cutting edge, the topics look into the future and we all learn together and that makes things really exciting.

I think that we are in a unique situation where both teachers and students are learning and rethinking the idea of a typical classroom. I want to think of the positive outcomes of this time and finding new resources to be more accessible to my students.

I struggle in thinking of varying misconceptions in the lesson especially in the virtual classroom. I think that I can definitely improve on this.

My strengths in Lesson Design, is that I make sure that I include how long an activity will take in class to ensure that the lesson flows. I also love to incorporate interactive activities for my students as well.

I find informal classroom assessments more difficult in the virtual world because there are so many platforms we use. The majority of the students could be assessed in the classroom or by different aural methods. Now it is more of a visual assessment in order to differentiate. I feel we lose the magic of informal assessments in the virtual word and I am having trouble overcoming.

I think that with the workload that each kid will have the best thing for me to design my lessons to be thorough but simple.  Get to the point with little filler.  We have to make it make sense for our kids.

I think the current situation has made us more accessible to the students. They can contact us at any time now. We have to be there for them, but they also have to know how to reach out for help when they need it.

We were already looking to go beyond copying from a power point, but virtual is another step beyond that, so I need to become familiar with other tools I can use that make the material more engaging.

Special Education is unique to virtual design because the all students have different ways of learning and so finding a way to bring the kids to where they need to be is going to have to be a collaborative effort, from everyone involved.

It's a challenge for me to teach virtually because I'm an  "old schooler" trying to eagerly learn how to use technology and resources at a fast pace.  It's overwhelming.  Want the lesson design to be interesting and engaging but not overwhelming and discouraging for the students.

I like to make lesson simple and easy to follow. I can focus on the student learning objectives. I give enough examples. I give homework.

My favorite part of online learning is the ability to do work at your own pace; educational videos can be paused, slowed down, replayed and so on. This is what makes virtual instruction unique.

I actually enjoyed the challenge of switching to virtual in the Spring because it was a challenge, it allowed both myself and the students who participated, a new avenue of growth. I still sought out ways to be creative, it just changed the arena. I like a challenge and thrive off of creativity.
