I try to provide a very structured online class, but I need to remember that not everyone may learn the material the way I have arranged it.  

To prevent student's from becoming disengaged, there is a need to make sure each topic's real-world relevance is connected.

I like how this portion of the course stresses the importance of passive learning, especially prior to the active portion of a lesson.

I like the idea of getting students more involved in designing learning activities and lessons.
