Prior to viewing this module, I was completely unaware of the number and scope of online resources available to assist me in teaching online. I would have loved to have the virtual frog dissection option when I was in high school. I will definitely be exploring the site provided to see what a good fit for my course would be.
I found the additional resources extremely helpful. Some I was previously aware of but most were new to me.
Human Body and Mind: http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/
Virtual Autopsy University of Leicester: http://www.le.ac.uk/pa/teach/va/welcome.html
Clinton Community College’s index of free resources: http://clinton.libguides.com
Khan Academy: https://www.khanacademy.org The Khan Academy is committed to providing a free world class education anytime, anywhere and has numerous resources for math and science education.
WizIQ: www.wiziq.com This site provides great educational tutorials as well as courses.
Time, preparation and commitment are imperative for teaching an asynchronous lab course
Remote labs sounds awesome. I teach welding and am not so sure how I would go about doing this through the online course. I know there is virtual reality but the technology is really not that similar to actually welding.... maybe someday when the technology gets better.
