Online can be the privileged mode. Distance is a positive principle, not a deficit. Resistance to online teaching sometimes stems from the view that it is a ‘second best’ mode. Christine Sinclair argues for the need to value good online education for the rigorous, responsive and creative teaching it enables.

This talk forms part of a series of three book launch events held in September and October 2020 to mark the publication of The Manifesto for Teaching Online:

Re-coding, 16th September.

We are the campus, 7th October.

Text has been troubled, 15th October.

The Manifesto for Teaching Online can be purchased via MIT Press
