Abstract

Creating the good teaching experience for new online educators is important, but many new teachers are limited with technological skills or little (if any) e-learning management systems background. The transition from Face-to-Face (F2F) traditional live classroom to a new virtual one involving online learning skills and knowledge to be used on a e learning management system may be daunting and even terrifying for some new virtual instructors. However, a good online instructor should be able to create the appropriate learning environment to walk new teachers from the onset of what is an e-learning management systems to creating their own practice classroom (or sandbox) to help practice necessary skills and techniques needed by today virtual (online instructors). For the purposes of this paper, the Blackboard and other e-learning management systems platforms will be examined.
