I learned the importance of making my modules consistant in length, styles/format and languae styles. I plan on developing my modules and then trade off with another instructor to test each others set up.

I learned the pros and cons of synchronous and asynchronous discussions. I look forward to implimenting both and learning how and when to use each more affectively.

That even with online learning that personal bonding is still important for the success of the student. I understood the importance of the instructor bio, but did not think about the student bio. Although this is one of the activities we do during our in class orientation I wouldnt have thought about it for online.

So far I have learned that the more prepared I am with how I want the course to progress and how I am going to engage the student in a none face to face enviroment the easier it will be for the student to learn information. To meet my goals I am going to make sure that I am fimilar with my online delivery system and get a chance to run through my course materials a couple times on that delivery system so I can better navagate students through any issues they may encounter.
