Online learning is a challenge for me in the aspect of showing myself to the students. I like to think of myself as an instructor slash entertainer in the face to face classroom. I don't seem to pull that off very well in the recorded lesson/lecture for student viewing. I have never been comfortable in front of a camera however I have learned how to instruct by IVC-Interactive Video Broadcasting.
The COVID-19 instruction of prepared video instruction was difficult for me. I found myself going to fast or not interjecting enough question for thought processing. I did find it much easier to not allow my face to be on screen while sharing content with the students. As this pandemic continues I hope to become more comfortable in sharing myself by recording.
