We've come a long way but we have a long way to go with online teaching.
I've spent the last week teaching online. Teaching online to me means
that I should have immediate contact with my students. I mean
immediate contact with text and audio. I've had immediate contact with
my students using both text and audio this summer. There's no question
that audio contact is the first contact that a teacher should make
with a student. After that first contact text and graphical contact
becomes much easier. Video contact would provide even greater meaning
to a first contact. I'd love to make video contact part of my student
to teacher relationship. However, unless student use Mac OS X, there
are no video apps which will provide meaningful video contacts.
