Online Learning and Teaching - For Me?


I recently took a few quizzes designed to help me make a decision about whether online learning and teaching is right for me.  Due to enjoyment and success in taking previous online courses, I have already found that an online environment meets my needs as a student.  Nonetheless, I was unsure if I was ready to become an online teacher.

I already know that to be an efficacious teacher, online or face-to-face, you must have well planned objectives and lessons.  When adding another element such as technology, it is even more important to be prepared.  One area that may be a challenge when teaching online is my lack knowledge about computer terminology.  Nonetheless, I am certain I will find success with practice and the use of Google!  I am a master at "Googling" acronyms and information.
