As more and more students and families and schools move to include virtual learning as part of their daily routine, new innovation will continue to develop to make the virtual learning world more normative. Your interviewer will want to hear that you have an open eye for how the technology will innovate in the coming years. The interviewer should have a clear impression that you are ready to handle any new innovations that come to the distance learning field, and have a sense to anticipate a truly innovative project versus just a passing one.

"Tools and technology in distance learning have progressed rapidly in recent years. I expect none of that to slow down. I'm aware of a growing movement to include virtual reality in the virtual classroom. As video game developers are perfecting VR, there will be many other uses for it too. Imagine taking a group of high school history students back to ancient Rome through virtual reality. While I am definitely not an expert on it, I also have a strong feeling that artificial intelligence will completely change the way virtual students learn and virtual teachers educate in the future. From an educator's perspective, AI will likely manage administrative burdens so that educators can better focus on their students. And for the student, AI will be able to customize learning. The future possibilities are endless."
