Thank you everyone, it was great to hear from you and interact in real-time! #distanceedchat

A9: I will use distance education practices to help prepare my secondary students to succeed in distance ed. I also want to explore connecting students through distance ed across lines of difference. #distanceedchat

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@K_Arnold526 I agree! And you said it so simply and eloquently!

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

A8: I would love to see distance ed provide students and teachers with more opportunities such as enrollment in other schools and classes, connections with diverse people and ideas, courses where students pursue passions. #distanceedchat

A7: I took an online course called Multicultural Children's Lit with Marek Oziewicz at the U. The course was very rigorous, valuable, and I had great social interaction with my classmates. The readings, literature, and discussions were very meaninful! #distanceedchat

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

A6: If every course were taught using best practices with excellent instructors, I believe they could. Teachers would need to be very purposeful to provide students with the collaboration and social interaction they could more easily gain in a F2F setting. #distanceedchat

@Betsy37163517 @pazureka I like getting to know your learners, so important! Distance ed is not just repeat course that you can use over and over.

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@AllisonKierth I love that you hit the social and metacognitive aspects of distance teaching. I totally forgot them!

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

A5: Organization, ability to plan highly structured and differentiated learning, communication, responsiveness #distanceedchat

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@AllisonKierth I love that you cited personal investment or motivation, so critical!

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@2020LDT I like patience. Hadn't thought of that one.

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

A4: Distance learners need to be skilled in time-management, communication, advocacy, self-discipline, and curiosity. #distanceedchat

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@MrATownsend I agree, the asynchronicity of group work can make things take much longer than necessary.

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

A3: Lack of access to technology, lack of F2F social interaction, high degree of personal responsibility, requires more time than a F2F course, and time is scarce! #distanceedchat

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@K_Arnold526 This is an awesome way that school's could leverage these principals to increase family engagement!

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@CourtneySkluza1 @pazureka I think the skills we teach our high school students to succeed in a distance course will be invaluable in their futures.

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@AllisonKierth Great idea! What do you think @2020LDT?

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

A2: As a student, distance ed allows me to work full-time, mom, and pursue my M.Ed. As a teacher, I have become interested in helping students learn the self-management skills to succeed in distance ed. and connect students with new different people. #distanceedchat

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

@AllisonKierth Which of our social interactions in #CI5321 have felt most valuable to you?

[Katie Green @mskjensen]

I forgot to say A1: Whoops!

#DistanceEdChat I took at correspondence Calculus I class from the U in high school because I didn't like our teacher. I procrastinated and did a majority of the class in 3 weeks. I knew I needed more structure to be successful, and that it was a lot of independent study.
