This Learning to Teach Online http://bit.ly/d18ac5 episode provides a brief overview of how our increasingly digitally networked world is changing the way we communicate and learn. It examines the benefits and challenges of online teaching, and how higher education is responding and adapting to these changes. We hope to paint a broad picture of the shifting educational landscape and to contextualise the need for the Learning to Teach Online project to help individual teachers play their own part in this.

Well said. I love that someone is finally starting to tackle online education. So many schools just throw a computer at a teacher and assume they know what to do.

@cybersophist1 thanks very much. Yes this is the main reason we did the project. Fro all of our research on its spread, impact and use, I think it has been helping many teachers around the world, at least we hope so! Appreciate the feedback!
