I think its important to understand the role of compliance because we do hear during political platforms the burden of student debt. This module has put it into perspective on how we play a role in managing student expectations from the start with transparency through their entire education process. 

I think one of the things I will have to go look up is the Institutional Policies on how to handle disruptors/ Intimidators or Procrastinators so that the course does not deviate from the learning objectives. 

I learned the challenges of Synchronous and Asynchronous discussions - I think its important to know which one is best for the students based on number of participants and geographical area. There are so many details for instructors to keep in mind in order to be effective and efficient in delivering materials. 

Connection is one of the most rewarding experience and a basic human need. By having the Biography of students as as well as the instructors it helps to see each other in a full context and not merely on superficial traits. 

AS I go through this online training, I recognize many of the challenges students may face. I have experience getting locked out from quizzes, how some training requires 100% while others only required 70% with multiple attempts.  It is imperative to have the technical and personal support to alleviate frustration and avoid discouraging students. 

Always considering the different learning methods varies by each individual as well as the capacity to be attentive greater then 15 minutes are important aspects to keep in mind. To get an engaged audience its important to vary method to allow for maximum participation without overburdening their capacity for attention.

meeting students for the first time can be both exciting and overwhelming; learning all of the names and following the list of must-do's. However, I think operating from a place of authenticity will always help guide you on how to connect .

In my background as an OR nurse, I fully understand preparing for the actual case. I think teaching has that in common, because once you are on the spot, you should have envision the delivery of the information with as little distraction as possible. Use any visuals or A/V materials to supplement and have them readily available without breaking thought process to hopefully, get students into their "FLOW" state of learning; focus and clear delivery of material. 

I think professionalism starts with first impression and ability to establish trust.
