Reflection

What kinds of assumptions or biases do you observe in your responses? How do you think these affect your instruction for/design/experience in online vs face to face spaces?

My assumptions are pretty single minded. My natural inclination is to think that teaching in person is better because it allows for a more natural interaction between students and myself. But I am not giving on line teaching enough credit. Online learning can be less stressful for students and they may feel more comfortable allowing their learning to be more authentic.
