I learned that it is a good idea to post a bio and have the students do the same in order to learn about them. Oftentimes, learning about them is helpful to the instructor on what the expectations are and proceed with caution or just having a better understanding of the student helps to be successful and to establish a relationship with each learner.

I learned that the instructor must know the system and be ready to answer any questions the students may have. It is important for the student and the instructor to understand how to navigate the system as well.
