The thought of teaching technology at a distance can be intimidating and downright scary. How can professors teach hands-on technology skills to students from afar? How can students get access to the technology they need to complete courses successfully when they are studying online? Additionally, it is important to consider students’ geographic location, access to Internet, access to updated hardware/software, and the technical specifications or requirements needed by each student’s device in order to install, run, or access the specific software you are teaching. If, for example, you are teaching game programming, students may need a device with robust memory, storage, and video card.
