=Help! I am new to VC and teaching! What do I do?= Lead Facilitators: Cathy King/Danny Maas

As a teacher you are sometimes thrown into new situations where you don't have much time to access resources or professional development.

The following scenario is to help you think about what tools, resources or professional development you might need to support your success when teaching in a VC environment.

You are teaching your first VC class and are nervous. You are scrambling for resources to prepare yourself for this new experience. What would be valuable to help you prepare for success? Please discuss in small groups what you would need to successfully teach in a VC environment.
 * Scenario** **1**

You have just had an opportunity to bring in an outside expert via vc to enhance your course. What content would you find the most beneficial? Have you brought in outside resources using vc previously? What was the experience like? Would you do it again? Would you access the same resource again? How might you assess the value of this resource?
