In this first blog post of 2020, I’ll introduce myself and
some changes coming to the Straube Foundation Education blog.
I am Michele Straube.
I am recently retired as an environmental mediator and law school
professor. Meaning I have a background
in teaching, albeit not online teaching.
I am currently a student working toward a certificate in teaching
English as a second language. The
certificate program is virtually all online (even though the program is based
at my local university), so I have personal experience as a student of online
education. I have great curiosity about
the pedagogy of online education, especially how the benefits of in-class interactions
can be replicated online.
I am looking forward to taking over blog management. I hope to share with you what I learn about
my many open questions. There will also
be guest blog authors and re-posts from their blogs, focusing especially on the
great variety of online education programs, their successes and challenges.
I’d love to hear what online education topics you, our
readers, are interested in learning more about.
Email me your suggestions here,
and we’ll see what we can do.
Until the next post, here are some online education resources
to keep you learning:
