INSTRUCTORS' BIOGRAPHY & SYLLABUS FOR ONLINE TEACHING

This week i really found more interactive as we got a chance to read each other's biography which highly motivates me a young academician that i still have to go miles in my career . Interestingly knowing about your peers academic and professional life is a good approach to break the ice among students. although i am used to with this but still not having a formal confirmation to this , i always hesitant to talk about the personal life in class formally.  Learning how to develop instructor's biography was a good exercise.

This week as a part of assignment adapting a F2F  syllabus to online education , found to be very interesting. as i am so much interested to share this as social sciences modules can be easily adaptable and also students will be willing to experience the same online. as such modules involve lots of discussions and problem-solving exercises which are easy to adapt and understand on online media as well.
I learn to adapt new methods with more enthusiasm , also able to think of new activities for adapting in an online environment.

In terms of challenge , i really not  found at all. Waiting for a real-online teaching experience!
