Sometimes the education will be more than just the assigned subject. Teaching the students good communication skills and time management is also super important. 

I think it is really important to remember that everyone learns differently and at their own pace. It may not be obvious is someone is having a hard time processing information. It is important to find out if students need more resources or accommodations if they are struggling. 

I liked the breakdown of types of learners (noisy, quiet, procrastinators). I have experienced some of these types of learners in online classes I have taken. 

It is important to make students feel welcome and confident to bolster discussion participation. 

It is important to share our background and learn a little about our online students. 

I am nervous about setting up my first course. But, this highlighted that prep and practice will make it easier. 

I liked all the types of lectures explanations. I can see how it will apply to the information I will teach.

This module gave me some ideas of how to introduce myself and learn the students' names.

I really liked the ABCD breakdown of Instructional objectives. 

That I bring my own unique experience and style to the classroom. I may lack classroom experience, but I excel in this field.
