Distributed Learning

I love the idea of courses being accessible to students in multiple ways. When I think about a multi-access classroom, I think about how beneficial it can be to students with mental health issues specifically. If students have the option to take a class from home, it eliminates having to have that conversation about why a student wasn’t in class that day which can be a really difficult conversation to have over and over again. It also allows them to not fall behind when several days are missed. It makes me happy to know that it is becoming more of an option and that educators are thinking about accessibility. I don’t think there is a ton of potential for a multi-access music classroom, as you really have to be there for that kind of instruction, but I’m glad to see that it is happening in other classrooms with different instructional styles.
