As beneficial as the virtual classroom can be, it is not an ideal environment for everyone. New students must complete the eLearning Intro before enrolling in an online course. Current students who have not successfully completed an online course at Wake Tech must also complete the eLearning Intro before registering for another online course.
Before I Wake Online Free
This is a book for any time and any place. It is adaptable to many fields, and to any level of teaching. However, our class took place at a particularly symbolic time and place, in New York City in Spring 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic raged through our city. It documents how we adjusted to a medical, financial, and personal crisis (working at home, children home from school) that had an impact on every member of our class. We began to make the shift even before CUNY moved all of its 275,000 students online. A few of our class members were immunocompromised and asked if they could take the class remotely. Unanimously, the class decided if they had to be remote for health reasons, we all had to be. We had become a community. We were in this together. We had two class meetings working out all the details of online, engaged, interactive learning, both synchronous and asynchronous, before the rest of CUNY. The weekly class meetings were so meaningful that we even voted to hold class during the spring vacation. It gave us continuity. It gave us hope being together once a week, even online. What better testimony to transformation?
Now my schedule is organized according to the self-isolation rules. I wake up at 10 a.m., I have breakfast, and then I have my online classes. I spend my free time as I wish, then I prepare my lessons. Sometimes I watch classes on TV. I am at home all the time. Since I have plenty of time now, I try to balance out working and free time on my own. 2ff7e9595c
