Hi Kate! I really enjoyed how you formatted your blog; it was organized, concise and easy to follow along. I totally agree with you that I was unaware of just how long open and distributed learning has been a part of British Columbia’s school system. Personally, I took planning online through SIDES in Victoria but other than that I had no idea that online learning has been a prominent topic in education for years. I think that this is such an interesting time in history to be taking a course like this because the rules and regulations are changing rapidly every day. Until this week I had never considered the difference between online learning and remote-emergency access learning so I really enjoyed diving into those differences and solidifying those differences.

I was wondering what type of learning setting you think you would be the most successful in: open learning, blended learning, online learning or face to face? What skills do you possess that would make you successful in one setting over another?

I am also very curious to learn more about “How can we promote the use of blended learning system with younger students and those with exceptionalities?”

I am excited to continue learning with you!
