I learned that students feel like their online learning and face to face learning are the same most of the time. I would like to better myself as an instructor to make a difference in the students by keeping them more engaged in school, and be more consistent with clear expectations and mutual respect.
I have learned that positively is important for online students that sometimes struggle with self doubt. I will be mindful with the students with genuineness and open up to students and show empathy.
I learned that consistent and constant contact is paramount for a healthy student educator relationship. I will revamp my communication practices to provide a more personal experience.
Hi
I thought it was interesting about how online and face to face was the same and I always thought that it would have been a little different .Especially engaging with the students.
I guess it depends on the individual.
It also confirms to me in how I am teaching and where I need to be better at.

From this module, I learned that engaging online students goes far beyond posting content - it requires intentional design, consistent presence, and meaningful interaction. Strategies like clear communication, timely feedback, interactive discussions, varied multimedia resources, and real-world application helps students feel connected, motivated, and accountable. I was specially strucked by how instructors' presence and prompt responses can significantly impact students' participation and persistence in an online environment.
Online teaching is very interesting to me,because is important to know how to keep students intersted in the class, engaging them in participating and stay active and productive during class. Specially the ones like me that prefered one on one teaching.
Communiucation is a Key, positive relationship with students, been friendly but not their friends, encorage them to ask as many questions they have before assuming anything.
The current group of students is just like customer service in the work enviroment. You tell them what you will do and when you will do it and than you actually do it. Telling a student how it benefits them is crucial!!!
This module highlighted how strongly student retention is connected to relationships and a positive campus climate rather than student effort alone. I learned that frequent, meaningful interactions between students and faculty play a critical role in helping students feel connected and supported. Going forward, I plan to be more intentional about proactive communication, setting a welcoming tone, and checking in with students regularly, especially in online courses. These efforts can help foster belonging and improve student persistence.
For institutional personnel, a constructive campus climate promotes collaboration, morale, and shared responsibility for student success. Clear expectations, mutual respect, and open dialogue contribute to effective teamwork and reduce burnout, particularly in high-demand academic and clinical programs. Faculty and staff who feel supported are better equipped to provide consistent instruction, mentorship, and student advocacy.
From this module, I have learned that strong, trust-based relationships and consistent communication are key drivers of student retention, especially in online learning environments. I intend to apply this knowledge by strengthening proactive outreach, fostering warmer and more empathetic interactions, and ensuring timely support so that students feel connected, supported, and motivated to persist in their studies.
I learnt that the strength of the working alliance positively correlates to adherence to an action plan, increasing the likelihood of positive student outcomes. Working alliances can be established and maintained through early, frequent, and consistent interactions with online students.
It's important to think carefully about how policies, email communications, and individual interactions affect the overall student experience. Establishing reasonably flexible grading policies, setting clear expectations of students’ code of conduct in the online classroom, and training faculty and staff on communication skills in virtual environments can promote a culture of positive interactions with students.
Para que un curso en línea tenga éxito y logre retener a los alumnos es clave el compromiso por parte del personal administrativo y académico, para que el estudiante sienta un clima de acompañamiento, comunicación eficaz, poder expresar opiniones y quejas y sentirse acompañado en todo momento.
