“Teaching online allows faculty members to be at the forefront of a revolution in education.”
For context, Boon did not anticipate teaching online when he did. In fact, he often jokes that he ventured into the online space accidentally.

That pivotal decision quickly revealed itself to be an opportunity to enhance his pedagogical approach to teaching both online and on-campus.
