My guest this week, Mira Perämäki, is an e learning professional who shares her wisdom and support for teachers and educational leaders who are wondering how to best facilitate virtual instruction. Throughout the episode, Mira reminds us how effective teaching practices - well-articulated and well-aligned objectives, consistent feedback and authentic tasks - are cornerstones in the virtual learning environment as well. She highlights ways that teachers can showcase personality and human connections in the virtual space and offers insight into some common mistakes and strategies to overcome them. Finally, Mira offers words of encouragement. Give it a chance. Keep an open mind and take baby steps!
