21 Challenges and Benefits Opening Discussion
(NOTE: for Discussion tool in LMS if using one)
Instructions
As with most teaching/learning modes, there are both challenges and benefits to blending your courses. We will start this section with your thoughts. In the Discussion Topic, answer the following questions, and then post your responses to others’ answers. You can then move on here in Content to review your facilitators’ thoughts on challenges and benefits (you will not be able to view our thoughts until you have posted your own to the Discussion topic). Your facilitators will summarize your answers to both questions in the Discussion area before we meet face to face at the end of the week.
