Online teachers/Digital Pedagogues- same difference?

As a PGCE student -a teacher in the making, I am introduced to various  new concepts, methodologies, tools and practices which are used in education. One of these is digital pedagogy. I must admit that it is very easy to get confused with exactly what digital pedagogy is and what the difference between digital pedagogy and online teaching is. Are all online teachers digital pedagogues?

A Learning Management System (LMS), also known as E-Learning is a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking and delivery of electronic educational technology courses or training programs. Many researches feel that LMSs are limiting structures and that their interface and functionalities control how teaches teach online. Morris claims that LMSs are not pushing the capabilities of the internet and is settling for the least innovative classroom practice and re-positioning that digitally.
How does this differ from what digital pedagogy does, many may ask. Sean Morris defines pedagogy as a study of learning and the many ways it is fueled at any space where learning is poised to occur. He states that pedagogy concerns itself with the instantaneous, momentary, vital exchange that takes place in order for learning to happen. Therefore, pedagogy is not limited to classroom practice, nor is it limited to institutions of learning. 

Jesse states that pedagogy is "the place where philosophy and practice meet". In the light of what pedagogy means and what digital pedagogy is, it is very important to note that not all teaching happens in the same way and not all teachers are digital pedagogues, nor need they be. There is a place for all styles of classroom practice, just as there is a place for learners of all capabilities and approaches. 

Morris ends off by making a powerful statement that "the LMS largely erased mindfully aware teaching and made excuses for unconscionable practice." He also states that digital pedagogy is different because it it willing to improvise, respond to a new environment and experiment. Therefore digital pedagogues are not the same as online teachers. Digital pedagogues allow learners to participate and share their understanding of the content through conversation, creating, networked learning. This motivates learners to think, create problems and ask questions. This way learning takes place more effectively. 

So the answer is no, not all online teachers are digital pedagogues.
