September 14th, 2006 by jbowes

Just browsing around and came across this article re online teaching in K-12 sector form the Florida Virtual School

Essential Principles of High-Quality Online Teaching: - Guidelines for Evaluating K-12 Online Teachers http://www.sreb.org/programs/EdTech/pubs/PDF/Essential_Principles.pdf

Key points cited:

- excellent communicators in online media (email. discussion forums, chat, other…)

- providing timely feedback

- active participation and frequent interaction among teachers and students

The article includes a checklist for assessment which could be quite useful as a self-audit tool.
