Accomodations need to be tailored to the needs of the student.

I had a veteran student with severe PTSD, they can be challenging but can succeed.

Emotional support animals are not service animals.

As an online instructor it is easy to put a student in "time-out" for 10 minutes.

Teachers can transition to styles based on the school environment. I used to be more of a guide but have become somewhat apethetic.

Virtual labs are possible, but free websites are not always up and running from year to year.  The website could be blocked by your district.  Purchasing virtual labs is a conversation worth having with your district.

Instrinsic motivators are self-gratifying and do not require any other reward. Extrinsic typcially requires recognition, reward, grade, or certificate. Extrinsic can eventually lead to intrinsic.

Some good stuff here. I am going to start creating an overview video for each of my online classes.

My role as an instructor is largely to guide the student to the appropriate resources.
