Hi, Esther. I just finished this course about the same time you did :) I found that the course reinforced the format of the online course I am teaching in which we hold a weekly synchronous seminar. I think the seminars are very informative for the students. The students can either attend the seminar (review it later if they choose not to attend) or take a quiz. This gives me a chance to cover important parts of the assignment and unit. I also taught an asynchronous course in the fall, which I used email to deliver and cover the assignment and unit. It is interesting comparing the two although the subject matter differed. Anyway, this course reinforced what I consider "best practices." Have a great Easter.
