This learn module supports understanding better ways to communicate through the online learning platform. Good information.
Language used while communicating makes all the difference. I can see how this reinforces retention and creates a positive learning experience.
Technology has changed how everyone communicates. It remains to be seen if it is for the good or bad. Either way, technology is here to stay. It is important to stay current as much as possible and to ask for support when one can't figure it out.
It is interesting to see how online learning has changed over the years. I appreciated learning about the demographics of students today.
At this time we do not have a way to ID students who use AI to write their papers. This is an issue. Using AI to do ones homework does not support growth, development, learning, or critical thinking. It is a tool, but I do not believe students understand this. And without a tool to ID AI as the source for writing papers then this behavior will continue. This is not good for student outcomes or the ability to critically think when needed to problem solve.
Online learning requires so much more than just monitoring the class. It requires timely, responsiveness, and engagement with students. There are a lot of factors to consider. especially when it comes to retention of students. Based on my prior experience as a student and this learn module, I think it takes more than what is done face to face in the classroom. I have a lot to think about.
Online learning is a unique learning platform. I do think some classes are okay to be taken on that platform. However, classes like statistics would be better in person. Unfortunately, that is not feasible for a distant learner.
Therefore it is important for the instructor to be responsive and timely in communication and feedback. Much of what this module covers is important to understanding how to support students in the online learning environment.
There is so much more to online teaching then one would expect.
There is a lot to consider. I was very surprised to learn it takes so much time to 10-20 hours to provide 1 hour of content
The content is very interesting and provides a lot to good information and suggestions
I appreciate the tips for supporting students development of professional communication. This is an essential skill to learn to be successful in school and in the professional life. Teaching these skills would set the student up for a lifetime of success.
