4. Which Mode Students Need?

Figure 4: Who are your students? Image: UBC Library

When making choices about the mode of delivery, teachers and instructors need to ask the following four questions:

  • Who are – or could be – my students?
  • What is my preferred teaching approach?
  • What are the content and skills that I need to teach?
  • What resources will I have to support my decision?

As always, start with the learners.
