Let& #39;s be clear on one thing: teaching online for the first time, as many of us do now (not counting the spring emergency remote teaching) will *not* be perfect. With all the support & the good will in the world, we& #39;d be naive to expect perfection. So here is what I suggest: 1/
Let& #39;s learn to be ok with "work in progres". Let& #39;s not feel embarassed if things go wrong (as some of them undoubtedly will). We need to be mindful of and reflect on our practice - more than usual - and aim to improve as we go. 2/
Let& #39;s be honest. With our students and with ourselves, equally. It is a new experience & we are all responsible for creating the best learning environment we can, under these circumstances. Let students be co-creators, ask for input and feedback and don& #39;t be afraid to hear it. 3/
Let& #39;s just focus on the things we can control and the things that matter: being there for our students, trying to create a learning space where students *want* to be, thinking less about delivering content & more about facilitating learning. 4/
If there is one thing we take away from this experience is to re-focus on our students, not on content and not on tools. It& #39;s a valuable piece of learning that will serve us well regardless of the environemnt we teach in. end/
