A Sheep in Wolve's Clothing: I am Teaching Online (February 9, 2004 10:12 PM)
Time to be honest. For being immersed in instructional technology for 12 years, I have yet to teach online. I've taught classroom computer courses (Director / Animation), created and delivered lots of workshops, developed a batch of online self-paced tutorials... but never a for-real online course.
