Abstract
Abstract: This paper is a report of the journey of a veteran K-12 teacher who moved onwards from supporting the instruction of ground and mortar K-12 campuses to adjunct teaching an educational technology course at a higher education institute through distance learning. The journey was filled with nervousness and excitement. “There is no turning back or time for hesitation, because you are the lead learner and the students are relying on you to be the expert,” she concluded.
