While reviewing this content, I learned that it is not always the best fit for someone to be a leader even though they are the best performer of the task. Being a leader requires additional leadership skills, that can outweigh job performance. Sometimes those qualities are difficult to recognize until they are put into a leadership position. 

When a class is primarly online, students tend to minimalize the responsiblities of completing assignments in a timely manner. Reminding students of due dates and following up with students who have turned in assigments late is helpful to keep students on track for success. Keeping the due date/time consistent helps with this, but also friendly reminders through general announcements via email or during online lecture helps.
