Activity
When working online and doing videos I have to be just mindful of my body language as I am if in front of students in the classroom.
Need to make sure I am maximizing multiple ways for information to be given to the students so it is effective for all students.
All of the information was very useful and it will be good to use all of the strategies presented.
I had not thought about having a code of communication conduct to help the students have a clear understanding of what the communication expectations are.
I believe they should all have to take just a short course maybe even less than a week that just teaches them not only how to move around within the course but also all of the resources provided to them to help them be successful in the course.
Leaning more abotu how to engage students in a more effective manner using meaninful feedback. Another topic of interest was also using my teaching evaluations to help me revise more course.
In the online learning community we must rely on all resources available to instructors and students to make it an engaging enviornment. Without using all of the resources we could potentially lose a lot of students because we are not keeping them engaged in an active learning enviornment.
I have learned that finding multiple ways to engage students within the online enviornement is possible. We can become live instructors behind the screen and let students see the real us with videos and eye catching announcements. Everything does not have to be black and white!
