Consider the desired learning outcomes for your students and the learning context in which you are working: student cohorts, discipline and topics addressed, as well as physical and virtual learning environment.

In this context:

what understandings of education inform your approach?
what learning theories might be pertinent?
what learning activities might be appropriate?
what does that indicate about your role and the teaching strategies you might adopt?
in regards to dynamics, how do you/will you evaluate and review your approach and strategies employed?

For an example of how these questions have been answered by others, refer back to Ashworth et al. (2004) [pdf, 1.26MB] Links to an external site.. You may also like to refer to Biggs’ (1996) model of teaching Links to an external site..
