Very interesting course, ED 102, and I like the interjection of information to keep it interesting.  I would say some highlights are some direct pointers on how to keep the students engaged in learning.  I will definately use the sharing some students professional insights for my class.

I think a startling statement (at the beginning of the lecture)  does perk up ones attention.  The understanding is that a student is anticipating soaking up information.  The basic reiteration of anticipated information will often times be boring.  With a dynamic start the student will be open for more learning.

I think that groups online can work fine.  The thing is the members must work in tandem.  They have to communicate what has to be accomplished and then systematically work on it.  They should all trade phone numbers and maybe set up a skype type connections to coordinate and assign the tasks fairly.

Even if you have been teaching a while I believe that some of the updated nuggets, if you will, in the course were very positive pointers to build on.  For example taking into consideration particular personal issues of the students.

I just finished too.  It had alot of tidbits I  took notes on for future use in the classroom.
