My OnIOn Method of Instruction

Here's how I see education moving into, if it is not there already. I call it My OnIOn method of instruction for Online, In-person, One-on-One and because these are the three layers:

Layer 1: Online Instructional Component: This component contains the course material such as readings, activities, quizzes, and other items the students can use for learning purposes. This is also where the assignments will be submitted.

Layer 2: In-Person Instructional Component: Students can attend various lectures and activities dealing with the topics of the course. Some of these topics can be repeated throughout the term depending on their foundational importance and student needs.

Layer 3: One-on-One Assistance: Students can meet one on one with a faculty member or designated staff to discuss the material further to gain better understanding of the concepts in the course.

The idea is to have all of the material online with the two in-person components to support the student’s education.
