It is crucial for us teachers to remember that we must use multiple sources of data that are appropriate for our students. We must use multiple methods that integrate qualitative and quantitative data. Some of these are course grades, syllabus sca, portfolios, question tools, pretest, posttest, among many others. This is in order to close the lop of teaching online and how it should alwayts be a student-centered approach. 

It looks as if it is going to be a long time till we go back to our classrooms. Meanwhile, we cannot let our students fall back in their education. This course has helped to create my new path for online teaching. I definetly suggest that all teachers who plan to go online should take this course. Very special training.

Online learning for the student is a well rounded approach because our students were born in this computer age.  Student are very knowledgable with all types of comuputer knowledge. The students are wiser to computers but weaker to common sence knowledge.  They are so geard into the computer but  they don't have the common sense to put it down so they can relate and communicate in their surroundings.  Their computer knowledge is good because they help teach the Baby Boomers who relate by doing everything by hand.  So the phrase turns around that we are wise in common sense but… >>>

It will take a long time for us to go back to teaching in classrooms. Meanwhile, we should be prepared to help our students on-line using CMS (Course Management System).

I have to say just how thankful I am to be a part of MBA Research Curriculum Center.

To ensure the success of an online learning platform, instructors should provide qaulity engagement with students and offer effective feedback that enhances learning outcomes.

I learned that having a complete system is important. Looking forward to possible speed bumps is necessay to ensure the best learning environment that I can. Have multiple angles of support, through face to face interactions, forums, discussions, and video resources with a personalized approach.

The 6 learning styles are avoidant, competitive, dependent, collabrative, participant and indepdent. How do i quickly assume the learning styles of an online student with a cohort of 18?

As an online instructor i want to provide information to help learners, suggest ideas and help learners with content. In regards to the 3 different approaches to teaching for online learning when it comes to being the best Online Instructor. Should I use teahcer cneter approach, teach-centered student appreaoch or student centered appreaoch. 

The complexity and interconnectivity of the many facdts of an online course demand an instructor who has all components under control and is a master leader!

In order to improve your teaching style you must first learn what your teaching style is. Then do some research on how to improve your self.

To become a better instructor you must learn your teaching style.

looks overwhelming

I like the online learning.  I would like students to engage more in discussion verbally.  Student work hard and do the work which is good.  More verbal participation would be good.

With our current state of the World during this unpresidented time of COVID-19 and the Corona virus Pandemic, I have found that online learning and teaching can and will be challenging. Not only are we trying to maintain a since of normalsy, but we also are trying to make this online experience interactive and enjoyable during a very difficult time. I have found that using these resources that I've learned from this course have paid off tremendously. Being motivated and interacting with students via virtual classrooms and video chatting, it has given students a look into our personal space and… >>>

Well I guess it's safe to say we all maybe guilty of misinterpreting what we hear, what we read, what we see. While we cannot control the perceptions of others we can lessens misinterpretations. One way is to anticipate individual differences. Because our experiences are different and our perceptions are different, then our mindset will be different. Expecting and accepting this will definitely lessen misinterpretations. 

I have found in my years as a CTE instructo, students retain more from a lesson that involves hands on learning. The act of touching, doing, and seeing simultaneously keeps students engage; resulting in a higher level of learning.

This was a easy to follow, helpful class for onlline  education,

I will reflect on what I learned as I work to put together future courses.

Thanks!

Here is how I plan to use what I have learned in EL112 Workload Balance.  I am currently an online teacher for the first time in my 20 year career, attempting to teach 4th graders remotely.  I am a bit behind the times with technology.  I often find myself starting work as early as 5:30 and staying with it, on and off throughout the day and evening to 10pm.   I have learned that my disorganization is contributing to my long hours.  From the course I will be implementing office hours and a schedule/routinestructure to do various parts of my… >>>

Due to COVID-19, I felt this course very relevant to enhancing my strengths and improving my weaknesses in being an online instructor. From this course I have learned various workload management strategies in dealing with online classes. For example, plannine is crucial and utilizing the ADDIE model of setting up a course is ideal. I would be Analyzing my past courses, Designing a new course to meet students' needs, Development appropriate assignments to expound content, Implementing the course, and then Evaluating the course at the end and also at the mid point. I will start using the Stop, Start, Continue… >>>
