Learning activities are key to helping students apply what they've just learned. For instance, after discussing the theory behind various cooking techniques, I have students immediately put that knowledge into practice by preparing dishes that demonstrate those techniques. These hands-on activities help them solidify their understanding and make the course content more relevant and exciting, as they can directly see how the skills they’re learning translate into real-world applications in the kitchen. These activities help students connect the dots between theory and practice, whether creating a new recipe or perfecting a cooking method.
In this module I learned that there are a number of components to online learning. The options to correspond with instructors and peers are needed in this space in order to have a healthy learning environment.
To continue to engage the active learner, mixing both synchronous and asynchronous methods may be the most appropriate.
We are more likely to use a hybrid model to help with student engagement. We also use discussion board with case studies to have students interact with each other more.
Excellent information on the advantages and disadvantages of synchronous versus asynchronous courses. Synchronous courses allow for face-to-face interaction and can create an atmosphere for lively discussions. Asynchronous courses allow students to take more time to reflect and process the information before they respond to discussion forums.
The course content has to be engaging so as not to cause the student(s) to feel isolated and/or frustrated. It is important to use a variety of media to keep the student engaged. Integrating critical thinking questions afford the student the ability to apply the knowledge they've gained. And, lastly, don't discount the impact of guest lecturers in an asynchronous learning environment. If selected appropriately to the content being delivered, they help to reinforce the material and provide the student insight into real-world applications.
Esta unidad trata sobre las actividades de apoyo en la enseñanza en línea, como la entrega de resúmenes de lecturas que deben ser de absoluto interés del estudiante, y con ello alcanzar los resultados de aprendizaje esperados. También, diferenciar una sesión síncrona, de una sesión asíncrona. Todos estos alcances los pondré en práctica sobre todo en la elección de las lecturas relacionada al tema a tratar en clase.
Online learning offers the same instructional opportunities as F2F learning.
The importance of guest speakers and real-world information that students can gain from the guest speakers.
Asynchronous learning is student-centered.
Effective learning requires the motivation of learners, while some course modules would require synchronous training depending on conceptual goals, some can guide the students to expand on their learning through asynchronous learning. Depending on the subject matter and course objectives, a hybridized approach is more effective. Determination of a framework for a particular course that is both engaging and interactive can enhance student success.
Learning in both environments helps activities between students and teacher
Learning activities in an online course are tasks and exercises designed to help students interact with course material and consolidate their knowledge. These can range from readings and videos to discussion forums, collaborative projects, and assessments. The variety of activities aims to promote active participation, skill development, and knowledge acquisition in a flexible and personalized manner
He aprendido la importancia de la clases sincronas y asincronas y como se debe lograr un balance en lo que se conoce como hibrido.
Supportive learning, reminds me that there isn't 1 way to teach a student or group of students. Keep you student wanting to learn and provide the activities to help with that.
Guest Speakers are a great addition to the online course.
Having guest speakers in an online class is a great way to further engage students and create more personal interactions.
Combining the intellectual interaction and the lesson from this module on asynchronous chats, reminds me to be proactive and encouraging in the discussions. This allows for students to post at their own time, then having a response at a later time from me when they log in. To me, this builds rapport and a sense of community! Kathryn
The readings need to be specific and students should have an understanding of why the readings are assigned and how they ar pertinent to the discussions and assignments.
I would really like to incorporate a question base discussion board built in to my syllabus to where weekly students must post a question on the topic of the week to a discussion board and other student have to comment on at least to student questions. I think this like Socrates can enhance student learning on the topic.
