1A: I think all teachers or tutors had these problems at some point in their professional lives. I believe that the majority of these obstacles can be solved in very practical ways. The first thing I do when I want to find a new tool to work with is to establish keywords like subject, language, purpose and accessibility in terms of the hardware or software of the devices you are using (that can narrow the list a lot).

Secondly, you can bookmark or add a link to your search engine reading list (so you can revisit it for further study) there are a lot of free platforms to manage your online classroom (google classroom). There are tons of tutorials on these competencies online, you can use keywords to find those videos too.

Learning on digital platforms can be very engaging (you don’t need to entertain your students but you need to make them remember what you teach), cellphones can be used and supervised by the tutor or teacher (for students). You can use innovative learning tasks including everyone. There are public and private initiatives that are pursuing that e-learning is accessible to all.

The part of the text that caught my attention was “meeting learners psychological needs”. For me as a student these 3 aspects are important, for me is key to feel that I own my learning process and that I have control over it (autonomy). To showcase my abilities in the different digital platforms (especially the ones I master) give me a sense of that I’m competent in learning and for me the most important of the 3 relatedness, when you feel you are on a class with students that need to accomplish the same learning outcomes, is easier to motivate yourself to continue. I will expect that my teacher made me feel comfortable and capable of learning, so I will do the same for my future students.
