MY JOB
I need to “connect my students
to one another in a way that
enables them not only to learn
from one another, but also to
catch life experiences from one
another — to shape one
another in the way that only
peers can.
-“A Letter to Educators Teaching Online for the First
Time,” Reshan Richards and Stephen Valentine, March
13, 2020

the knowledge and
skills on technology
that would establish
connection and
interaction at a
different level toward
a rich learning
environment.

Master meeting
applications, like Zoom
and Google Meet, is not

management systems,

BeSMart, Schoology,
Genyo.

10. What is teaching in the New Normal?
▪ Teaching in
the new
normal must
allow students
to be engaged
and/or
involved. 10

teachers is to make the
instructional design
(learning experiences
and materials) relevant,
meaningful,
memorable,
motivational and, in the
end, measurable.
11. What is teaching in an Online Environment?
First, if the
content is not
meaningful to
the individual,
the learner
will have
trouble
maintaining
focus.
Second,
learning
activities
must leave a
lasting
imprint or be
memorable
to the
learner. 11
Dr. Michael Allen
has described
four elements
that will
contribute to

instructional
design.

13. What is Teaching Method?
13
Refers to the
general principles,
pedagogy and
management
strategies used for
classroom
instruction.
Teaching theories
into categories
based on a teacher-
centered approach,
student-centered
approach, and high-
tech approach to
learning.
14. Teacher-Centered Approach to Learning
▪ Teachers are the main authority figure in
a teacher-centered instruction model.
▪ Students passively receive knowledge
from their teachers through lectures and
direct instruction.
14
15. Student-Centered Approach to Learning
▪ Teachers are still an authority figure in a student-
centered teaching model, but teachers and
students play an equally active role in the learning
process.
▪ The teacher’s primary role is to coach and
facilitate student learning and overall
comprehension of material, and to measure
student learning through both formal and informal
forms of assessment, like group projects, student
portfolios, and class participation.
15
16. High Tech Approach to Learning
▪ The high tech approach to learning utilizes
different technology to aid students in their
classroom learning.
▪ Many educators use computers and tablets
in the classroom, and others may use the
internet to assign homework. The internet is
also beneficial in a classroom setting as it
provides unlimited resources. 16
17. Some tech tools used in classrooms today:
▪ G Suite External link (Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Classroom, Drive,
and Calendar)
▪ Tablets/laptops
▪ Gamification software (such as 3DGameLab External
link and Classcraft External link )
▪ Education-focused social media platforms (such
as schoology External link and seesaw External link )
▪ Technology accessibility External link for students with
disabilities
