The question I have been asked the most in recent months is one all teachers are interested in now they have been compelled to use online learning. It is this: What can I do to engage my learners in an online environment? What they are really asking is, how can I motivate my students to learn when I'm not in the same space as them?

Why Providing Feedback Is Critical For Online Learning - GO1 Learning

Why Providing Feedback Is Critical For Online Learning - GO1 Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

In a traditional classroom or training room environment, educators can provide direct face-to-face feedback to our learners, in real time.
