I have been teaching Dental Assisting for many years. There is not a set of instructors that teaches everything exactly the same. Just as there are not 2 dentists alike. 

Understanding how to handle the different types of disruptive learners. This can be applied similarly to traditional classrooms.

Learning methods to engage students in the asynchronous learning platform.

I learned about ways to connect with students on a more personal level and how to engage them into knowing each other.

Though course introduction is similar, it is important to fully understand how the course management system works.

From this module I’ve learned the difference between synchronous and asynchronous and how it applies to students 

Really good advise for staying present, projecting while practicing distant education, ie. consistantly staying in touch with students throught text messaging and emails 

Online course content transfer involves the effective transfer of course materials from traditional formats to online platforms. This process requires careful planning, consideration of the learning objectives, and the selection of appropriate digital tools to ensure a seamless learning experience for students

Guide on the Side is a method of teaching that allows learners to explore concepts and content at their own pace with guidance from the instructor. It is often used in virtual learning environments to promote active learning and student engagement. The instructor serves as a facilitator or "guide on the side," providing support and resources as needed while students navigate through the material independently. This approach encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, and self-directed learning skills.

I have learned that both synchronous and asynchronous learning have their place in a virtual learning environment. The choice between the two depends on various factors, including the nature of the course, the preferences of the students, and the available resources.
