The
following Bibliography is related to Online Teaching Techniques that can be applied on Online Education.
Imagine you're a teacher that as been invited to tutor, for the first time, an online course. How can you make the transition from a classroom to an online educational environment?
The following articles and resources were selected to help teachers that want to learn how to develop online teaching techniques.

The following articles and resources were selected to help teachers that want to learn how to develop online teaching techniques.
The
first reading I recommend is:
1.
Terry Anderson. “Teaching in an Online Learning Context.” In Theory and Practice of Online Learning. http://cde.athabascau.ca/online_book/ch11.html#one.
In this chapter “Teaching in an Online Learning Context” the author "outlines the three major components of teacher presence, and provided suggestions and guidelines for maximizing the effectiveness of the teaching function in online learning".
Those three components are: design and organization, facilitating discourse, and direct instruction. Reading this chapter should be the first step to all teachers when creating an online course.
After
this introductory reading, I would recommend the following
presentation:
2.
Geoffrey Cain, M.S. “Seven Principles of Effective Teaching Online.” http://www.slideshare.net/geoffcain/seven-principles-of-effective-teaching-online-presentation.
View more presentations from Geoff Cain.
This
presentation is very important for two reasons:
1. It shows 7 teaching principles
for face-to-face teaching and compares them to online tutoring. The
information is very well designed and explained, making this presentation a
valuable learning resource for teachers.
2. By comparing the face-to face teaching to online teaching, this presentation can help teachers that have to face, for the first time, the transition between these learning environments.

After
reading the above resources, a teacher may be considering "What
activities and techniques may I use in a online course?". For that
question I recommend the reading of the following resources, that are all
about online teaching techniques:
3.
“Course Redesign Guide.” Centre for Teaching
and Learning - Queen's University. http://www.queensu.ca/ctl/goodpractice/technology/resources.html#designing.
The guide is structured by types of learning objectives (Know, Do and Think), teaching and learning techniques and types of technology that a teachers can use for their online courses. It's a great resource because it rounds up critical points about online teaching for teachers that are starters in elearning.

1.
Overview of the Principles, Guidelines, and
Benchmarks for Online Education: best practices for online teaching with
a review of the variety of guidelines and principles of online education.
2.
Best Practices in Online Teaching Strategies:
strategies for planning and management
of online instruction, the actual teaching process and student assessment and
evaluation.
3.
An Exemplary Program and Examples of Effective Practices: examples
of an award-winning online education program and the teaching practices of
three award-winning instructors.
This
report is highly recommended for teachers that want to learn the best
studied strategies for online education. After reading some teaching techniques
in the above resources, this report will show you which ones are the best for the development of effective online learning and teaching.
Finally
and because we are in the age of Web 2.0, I must include the following
presentation, that illustrates that online learning it's not only what happens
inside a LMS.
5. Sanjaya
Mishra. “Designing Online Learning, Web 2.0 and Online Learning Resources”
apresentado em National Workshop on Development of Self Learning Materials for
Distance and Online Learning., 2009. http://www.slideshare.net/missan/designing-online-learning-web-20-and-online-learning-resources.

In
this presentation, the author illustrates what is Online Education and the educational theories that support it. This
presentation is very useful for new e-teachers because it shows some tools and
teaching techniques used in online education and how the Web 2.0 can evolve
those processes to new learning and teaching strategies. If you are a teacher
that wants to develop online course, use these tips given by Prof. Sanjaya Mishra!

What every online teacher needs are reliable elearning authoring tools that caters to their creative and relevant content. While it is true that having the latest technology helps in building an ecourse, success still depends on the educator's skill and personality as it translates to his online course.
