As Korinne Toadvie stated, I think both synchronous and asynchronous teaching will be required. particularly as I teach high school. My kids will need to be able to see me, even if only on a video screen. Even the most "self-sufficient" I think will need that, and I am pondering how to do "mini-interviews" individually. Many of my kids will not ask for help until they are floundering, the weekly "check-ins" with me might help avoid that.
The amount of organizational work I will have to do to be able to start off as recoomended asynchronously is overwhelming. In a traditional, synchronous learning setting, I only present a unit at a time, then often reteach if needed after assessment-- my pacing is somewhat fluid and is almost constantly adjusted. I am jotting down questions for my admin as regards whether all content needs to be ready and available to students from the beginning and if they will self-pace or if I will "unlock" modules after the successful completion (clearly spelled out) of one.
