This module reinforced that understanding a variety of instructional methods helps instructors effectively engage students, accommodate different learning styles, and create a positive learning environment. This helps with course and content delivery which can foster student participation and success.
I am just starting out in the process of online teaching, but what I have learned so far is that you need to take the time to get to know the platform you will be using in order to provide the best service to your students. It is also important to have as much information as possible about the course structure and key details, such as grading. I plan to put this into practice right now, as I am about to undergo training on the platform we will be using for teaching.
Some people are not computer savvy, so it is important to make sure online content is displayed in a way that is easy to understand and navigate for those who may struggle. There may be questions so it is important to know the answers when students ask.
