Remote learning/first time teacher challenges

With limited face to face interaction one of the biggest challenges to me is not getting the nuances of body language and facial expression. Yes, we will be on zoom but it is going to be difficult to monitor and connect with that large of a group all at once. Also, the banter you would have individually with a student you probably don't want to have in a group setting, in most cases.

I think it will be difficult for me to connect with students. I think I will have to provide specific opportunities for students to engage

I agree with Heather that it will be very difficult building relationships with students who do not participate in the class (synchronously or asynchronously).  I also agree that communication with the student and their family will be essential to assisting in bringing them into class and building relationships.

I also appreciate the small class sizes as Tracey pointed out. This will assist in building relationships and better knowing our students.

I see a challenge also with the short time we have with students (6 weeks vs. 18 weeks per semester). Art students can often lack the confidence in their work from the start or periodically through their journey as an artist. I hope to have one-on-one zoom meetings with each student once a week, if not every other week.

I believe the biggest challenge will be getting to know the students in a meaningful way, especially using an artificial form of communication. Will students get to know us well enough to feel comfortable enough to reach out when it is needed? Will we have the time to adjust curriculum appropriately using that information?

It will be difficult to feel that sense of connection with students. Students seem much more shy online. They do not want to show their face, and they do not want to talk. Because of this, I think it will be harder to get that sense of connection. It will also make it harder to motivate students, as that relationship is often key for student motivation in my experience.

I always like to make an attempt to connect math to their daily and unique lives and possible future college/career plans; this usually happens before class starts when you get a few minutes to get to know your students.

In a math classroom it will be decreasing the effective filter from students with math anxiety.

# data[].attributes.body
The majority of students will make an attempt to be engaged and connect. There will always be those who are hard to reach in any learning environment. These will be our challenge.
Reaching out to those who have an affective filter already established, or those who don't have resources available to them that would normally be present in class will be the biggest challenge.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the biggest challenge to connecting to the students will be the time before/after class where you get a chance to learn the interests/challenges/likes/dislikes of the individual students

Getting conversations going about non-school related topics. However, I am always awkward.

I think being a teacher means being there in person and I miss the classroom. It is important to make student connections and that will be a challenge because we are starting with new students. When we went to distance learning in the spring we already knew our students and now we are starting new.

It will be challenging to build initial relationships with students without having the opportunities for casual interactions before and after class that we are accustomed to.

I envision

Biggest challenge for me will be the ability to build in person meaningful relationships.  I am really happy that the class size is smaller and will help get to know the students.

The challenge is to make meaningful connections with your students, that foster growth in learning and promote lifelong learning skills, while trying to establish a new "normal" academic environment.

# data[].attributes.body
The biggest challenges are going to be  creating great student engagement. As well as, creating as much enjoyable and informative active learning opportunities as possible.

It will be a challenge to connect with learners that do not attend the Zoom sessions or respond to posts etc.  In these scenarios, I'll have to call home, find out what is going on with the family, and design the learning experiences accordingly.  Having instructional videos, FlipGrid topics/ get to know you activities will help with this.  Always checking in on students, letting them know you care, and word your announcements in that way helps too.

It will be a challenge to get students to feel comfortable interacting with their teachers and their classmates through online platforms.  Having the interactive aspect is important for student engagement.

Making the one on one connection with students via Zoom instead of in person.  Making students feel comfortable to have their cameras on and participating via using the chat feature.

Helping the students gain the confidence of the "I can do this" attitude.

# data[].attributes.body
I usually spend several days getting to know the students and getting them to know and feel comfortable with each other. However, I need to cut some of my activities because I have such a limited number of classes.

# data[].attributes.body
Kids might not know who to reach out when they have questions. So, I will provide my students Google Voice number, so they can call or text me when they need help in my class.

# data[].attributes.body
Having small talk conversations where you can ask questions one on one or even in small groups

# data[].attributes.body
The biggest challenge in making connects is that it is almost impossible to "keep track" of relationships or even be able to know the vibe of every student every day through the computer. When we are on campus, we as teachers, can tell if a student is having a "bad day" within seconds of seeing them and right away we can address it and help the student. Even just noticing and/or offering to help out which is unmeasurably important when building these
relationships. Over the computer that is going to be exponentially harder.

I thinking getting students to reply and getting them to buy in will be difficult. Developing a level of comfort between peers will be a lot harder is students can not see each other. (Ceci)

I think the greatest challenge in trying to connect with learners is to get them comfortable with speaking out and getting involved in discussions on Zoom, both during whole class instruction and breakout sessions.

It is difficut to have that quick banter and dialogue than happens in a dynamic in-person classroom, and this is an essential part of relationship-building.

Not connecting through a camera. Harder to see emotions (especially if students do not show their face on camera).
