Distance Research: Implications for Practice

From LiteracyTentWiki

For the most part, implications and questions are presented as originally written by participants at the Meeting of Minds Symposium. This means that some items might be fragments of thoughts and therefore hard to understand. If you were a participant and see such a response, please feel free to edit the implication to reflect what you or your table was thinking.

To comment on the implications, use the edit function of the wiki. To add a new implication, use a single *. To add a comment to an implication, use **. Using this notation creates the following structure:

Implications for Practice

  • Can we add on additional assessment to measure interaction/communication?
  • Time to move to best practices regarding delivery and student/teacher interaction.
  • How to set up a program
  • Specific teacher training required.
  • Teacher response is one-on-one.
  • Combined programs (hybrids) more effective
  • Support our learners to become distance learners so that they can continue learning when they have to step out of school for a while.
