Moving to online
1. Redefining professional identity and teaching practices takes time
Dr Petrea Redmond says "Redefining professional identity and teaching practices takes time. (p.1051).
"A major challenge, identified by Yang and Cornelious (2005), when instructors move from a largely teacher directed face-to-face environment to an online environment, is to redesign learning towards a constructivist approach. This often results in a change in: roles and responsibilities; use of technology; relationships; presence; and a perceived lack of prestige".
