Once again, I have no hesitations with working with students virtually. Their participation drops off considerably, but I am unsure if that is a result of their not having access to technology of if they feel that online courses don't count against their grades so they're not taking it seriously.

The behavior was easier to manage. Just recording the sessions helped that. I enjoyed being able to work on my time frame, and my students enjoyed being able to work on their time frame. Every student had a device and internet, so they had constant resources available to them. That is not reality when we are in the classroom.

I attended a NMSI LTF session years ago for AP 10-12th grades. It was wonderful - so interactive. We physically worked on everything. It is difficult learning how to manipulate these lessons via a computer screen. But I know I will learn a lot, so it is worth it!!!

Missing the personal relationships and connections. Our students did a good job with their online learning during 4th quarter, even though some were slow to start. They missed seeing their teachers and each other every day (and getting out of the house) and we missed them. Also, I feel that feedback is much better for them in person than via computer.

Relationships are key when working with middle school students and I am not sure how I am going to build those relationships with my students if we are completely online. Also, many of our students know how to play with technology, however, we are asking them to now use technology that many of them have never accessed before. (First year using Canvas) I am concerned that they will have a hard time learning the process on their own.

One advantage was being able to record and revisit lessons. Students could watch the lessons as many times as they wish. Another advantage is being able to work when we want! Setting your own schedule is really nice.

This year during online learning I had a student that really performed better during online instruction then he did at school. Working online he developed a new found confidence by calling me when he had questions. He also was able to focus better without the classroom distractions. It surprised me greatly at his success and gave me a new appreciation that online learning can work for students.

More time available for contacting families and students to talk about school, work, behavior, great news, etc it really builds a bond with the families and makes a huge difference in the responses you get from the parents and even the students.

I worry that my students feel the same way that I do about online learning, and I worry that they are not getting as much out of the learning as they would if they were in person. I have also seen many responses that seem rushed, so I worry that some of my students aren't taking things seriously or don't feel like they really need to do the work. I also find it difficult to incorporate new tech without being able to troubleshoot in person. Even with the things that we did in class all the time, we had trouble at home in the fall. I cannot image starting a new year all digital...

Students will have to get used to motivating themselves to complete assignments.

Many kids will be at home with no supervision if school is completely virtual. Many kids will be at home with siblings they have to take care of.

Many students didn't do work at home when we did school in person... doing work at home will be a huge adjustment for many kids--especially kids who relied on school as the one stable thing they had.

I am concerned that they do not have the home environment to support their participation.  When parents say, "I'm not a teacher!!," many are not considering that I understand that statement, but would like them be a parent only by enforcing their participation in Zoom class meetings and/or directing their student(s) to me when they are struggling to get the help they need to be successful.
