A Pedagogical Continuum: The Journey from Face-to-Face to Online Teaching

  • Chapter

Abstract

As the number of blended and online courses rapidly increases, it is essential that we have an understanding of the roles and activities that make up the work of an online instructor. The move towards web-enhanced or online learning offers not only new opportunities, but also new challenges for both instructors and students (Downing & Dyment, 2013). There is a need for knowledge of how to work effectively online, and effective preparation of high-quality instructors is of fundamental importance to meet the diverse needs of learners. This is particularly important in the field of teacher education where the instructor is modelling appropriate pedagogical practices that may in turn be picked up by the pre-service teachers as part of their practices when teaching with technology.
