Megan Dischiavo’s background in teaching spans over 15 years with 14 of those years including online teaching.\u00a0 She presently teaches full-time at SUNY Polytechnic where she is continuously using and improving the online content for all her courses. \u00a0Previously, Ms. Dischiavo taught online at Mohawk Valley Community College for over ten years.<\/span><\/p>\n

She explains, “My experience in teaching online began 14 years ago. \u00a0I had the privilege of working with very forward-thinking online technology specialists who introduced me to online teaching. \u00a0I am eternally grateful to them as they began my journey into a teaching forum that has been exciting and rewarding.”<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

“At SUNY POLY I teach Anatomy and Physiology with an online lecture and online lab supplement. \u00a0In this course, I have added a plethora of online content including online lectures, online quizzes and additional online supplements. \u00a0The additional supplements for this course include a anatomical workbook and full lab pictorial review. \u00a0Furthermore, I posted all my lectures on Youtube so the students can review the courses even after they have finished my course. \u00a0I also teach Masters level Pathophysiology for Nurse Practitioners at SUNY POLY. This course is entirely online, with online lectures, interactive case studies, and online proctored exams.”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

“As an adjunct at Mohawk Valley Community College, I developed their first online Nutrition and Dietetics course, growing enrollment from one course a year to 5 courses a year. \u00a0I taught this course for over ten years.”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

“Online teaching has been a wonderful way for me to express my ideas and thoughts to students. \u00a0Over the past 14 years of teaching online I have learned how to teach on so many levels beyond the regular brick and mortar classroom. \u00a0\u00a0These opportunities offer students the chance to learn at their own pace and convenience. \u00a0Beyond the flexibility, it allows students to review materials as often as they like. \u00a0Students are able to take the teaching home with them on all learning levels, offering them more opportunities to be successful. I am so grateful to have the opportunity and honor to teach so many students in the world of the internet.”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
